Description

For piano. As a composer who started her musical life as a pianist, it was unexpectedly difficult to write a short piece for the American Pianists Association's competition. I wanted to write something virtuosic but something that stood out from traditionally showy "competitive" pieces. My new work, Heartbreaker, is virtuosic in subtle, unusual ways. It starts out deceptively simple, and quickly spirals into something that is just within the limits of the pianist's control. It requires a virtuosity that is not about playing faster than everyone else, or even about playing more accurately than everyone else, but more about striking a balance between rhythmic precision and the free-wheeling abandon the piece requires. — Missy Mazzoli
