Packet 7: Tossup 4

Note to players: Composer and genre required. A leap of a tenth from F to A is the basis for a three-voice fugue that comprises the fourth movement of one of these pieces. Jeremy (15[1])Denk described the heavily (15[1])syncopated “Arietta” movement of one of these (-5[1])pieces as “proto-jazz.” (15[2]-5[2])Fortissimo (15[2])B-flat (0[1])major chords open one of these pieces (15[1])that was considered unplayable (-5[1])until its first public performance (-5[1])by Franz Liszt. (15[2])Rapid (*) C-sharp minor (10[1]-5[1])arpeggios (-5[3])begin the presto (10[2])agitato third (-5[1])movement of one of these pieces. (10[1])Constant (10[1])damper pedal use in the first movement (10[1])of one of these pieces (10[2])reminded Ludwig Rellstab of reflections (10[1])on Lake Lucerne. (10[3])For 10 (10[1])points, name these 32 (10[1])pieces for (10[1])solo piano (10[1])that include “Moonlight.” (10[2])■END■ (10[13]0[7])
