Étude Op. 25, No. 5
Étude Op. 25, No. 5, in E minor, is a technical study composed by Frédéric Chopin in 1837. Marking a serious departure in the expected technique developed previously, Chopin wrote this étude with a series of quick minor seconds that produce slightly dissonant sounds. The effect has earned the étude the nickname "Wrong Note".
Structure
After the first theme of 'minor seconds' closes, Chopin introduces a Più Lento section in which a new melody is played in the parallel key, E major. This section is played consonantly, without dismelodious sounds such as the minor second. The final section of the piece starts with a recapitulation of the first theme, with climaxes in a coda played in E Major.
The second section is marked as Più Lento (It. More Slow) despite Chopin's metronome mark of ♩=168, a very quick tempo.
Étude Op. 25, No. 5 features an unusual overall structure, surrounding a major second theme, with the minor main theme. This idea appears only one other time in Chopin's set, in Étude Op. 25, No. 10. Styling the études in this fashion further emphasizes Chopin's deviation from the standard set before him by composers such as Carl Czerny. Both are structured much like the sonatas of Ludwig van Beethoven, in which Beethoven set apart three movements in this same structure.
