Description
This work carries a humorous nickname and is full of wit and energy. Restless, scurrying passages evoke someone hunting irritably for a dropped coin, with fast, agitated sections alternating against calmer ones. Cramming over five thousand notes into roughly six and a half minutes, it demands the considerable technique and stamina expected of an advanced player.
A broad collection of standalone piano pieces not belonging to any specific set, offering hundreds of varied character pieces to explore and compare.
