A dress rehearsal runthrough of David Rakowski's 90th piano étude, an "étude on G-C-H in search of a lullaby." The piece was written for Marilyn Nonken to celebrate the birth of her daughter Goldie Celeste Hunka (whose initials are GCH) and incorporates several well-hidden quotes from the Brahms Lullaby. G-C-H, incidentally, is G-C-B-natural.
Recorded in Capistrano Hall, California State University Sacramento on a Flip Video Ultra on November 9, 2009 during the Festival of New American Music. Rakowski's études are © by CF Peters.
Thanks, nice piece, and celebration;
