Description
Schönberg wrote the ‘Six Little Piano Pieces’, op. 19, in 1911 under the immediate impression of the news of Gustav Mahler's death. Of almost aphoristic brevity, they compress their material to an unprecedented extent. The longest piece in the series, op. 19/1, consists of 18 bars, while the shortest, pieces nos. 2 and 3, have only nine bars. The pieces are completely different in character, resembling almost painterly impressions on the one hand, but on the other hand they have an almost intellectual structure in terms of form and intervals. [...]
‘Leicht, zart’ (Lightly, delicately) the first piece passes us by with its many short, almost improvisatory sections, ‘Langsam’ (Slowly) follows the almost relentlessly throbbing ‘Terzenstück’ (Piece in thirds), interrupted by small expressive outbursts, then the third miniature is entitled ‘Sehr langsame Viertel’ (Very slow quarters); it sets chord sequences against cantabile thoughts in the bass. ‘Rasch, aber leicht’ follows No. 4, constructed as a dramatic recitative, and “Etwas rasch, zart, aber voll” sings out No. 5 with lyrical lines before the finale rounds off the arc “Wie ein Hauch” and “Sehr langsam” and tragically comments on Gustav Mahler's death one last time. (Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde, 2014)
