A Study On The Performance Of Chopin’s Piano Work Etudes Op.25 No.12

Frederic Francois Chopin was a Polish pianist and composer in the Romantic period of the 19 th century.During his short life,he composed most of his piano works and was known as the "Piano Poet".Chopin’s creative technique was deeply influenced by the previous musicians and was rooted in the deep Polish folk music culture.Based on the theory and practice of piano performance,this paper studies Chopin’s Etudes Op.25 No.12.The article is divided into three parts.The first part is to understand Chopin’s life and the time background of Etudes Op.25 No.12 by collecting and collating information.The second part discusses the creative characteristics of Etudes Op.25 No.12,including the rhythmic melody,the use of functional and color harmony and the homophonic characteristics across octaves.The third part discusses the processing of the performance of Etudes Op.25 No.12 in combination with the author’s own playing experience,including the use of arpeggio skills,the processing of strength levels,the processing of speed and rhythm expression techniques.Combined with the performance practice of my degree concert and the analysis and research of the thesis,I hope to learn the performance techniques shown in the works more effectively and accurately,and grasp the musical emotions contained in the works more clearly and delicately.
