This is truly an awful rendition of a marriage broken. Did he not feel any type of pain? Any remorse about this marriage? This piece sounds almost joking.

Are you a little bit deaf? The pain and remorse is obvious, not even by modernist standards. It should be obvious to anyone.

I have never understood why this piece is called " a valentine out of season" isn't st. valentine's a happy day for lovers? I thought exactly the opposite thing: that he had, while having trouble in his relationship, a happy period not in springtime and so "out of season" - but thats obviouly wrong. Could you explain it to me?

You put objects like nuts and bolts on the piano strings and it gives a plucked, percussive quality to the sound, in addition to reducing the decay dramatically. Of course, the timbre will change depending on the type of object used, often with surprising and unexpected results.

I'm guessing prepared piano means that you mute certain strings, then play the piano as is
