In the first titled ‘Adjacent Five Fingers’, the pianist plays clusters of five adjacent notes. The second consists of arpeggios of chords of all twelve tones. And the third takes its cue from the beginning of Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto – the pianist plays sequences of two-handed chords in the low, middle and high registers of the piano.
