First published in 1770, Solfeggio in C Minor has been a beloved work for intermediate and late intermediate pianists. Based on the concept of a vocal exercise that challenges a singer, Solfeggio in C Minor challenges the performer to play quickly, evenly, and expressively.
The piece is a crowd-pleaser in recitals and a wonderful addition to anyone’s repertoire that is satisfying to play while serving to keep the fingers limber.
This publication is an interactive urtext edition that includes historical information, scholarly commentary, a facsimile of the original edition, and performance suggestions from the composer, himself. George F. Litterst has provided a MIDI performance.
