I wrote my six Piano Etudes during the period when I was studying piano again as an adult and were originally conceived as pieces I would perform. It was my goal to write one etude a day and the entire piece was written with-in a week. Each etude has it’s own specific mood and character and is focused on a particular aspect of piano technique I was working on in my lessons. I attempted to create in music a kaleidoscope of different colors and atmospheres, which grouped together, create a set of short, fun up-beat pieces.
