Canope (Canopic jar) is a mysterious work whose title refers to an Egyptian burial urn. It is one of the most technically approachable piano pieces by Debussy, though it is musically elusive. Claudio Arrau held it to be one of the greatest Préludes, saying, “It’s miraculous that he created, from so few notes, this kind of depth.”
In his video lesson on Canope, Fred Karpoff explores how sonority is affected not only by pedalling but also by the overtones of the harmonic series in addition to addressing challenges such as voicing, texture and interpretation. Click here to view on the Online Academy: www.informance...
