Sound table 6.6 |
As the pitches of the phrase ascends the sympathetic resonance audibly expands aided by the combination of the una corda and sostenuto pedals, as well as the ½ pedalling of the damper pedal. The repeated notes played by the left hand seem to add to the resonance as an agitating agent. A harmonic arpeggiated line from the mid to very high registers, sympathetically contributes to the resonances of a sustained chord in the mid-treble register. The damper pedal is engaged for the whole phrase.
5. Dolce & U.C. Pedals:
The dolce and una corda pedals are used simultaneously in this sound to create the g timbre of the final chord. The una corda pedal is engaged fully on the penultimate chord, before combining with the dolce pedal.
