Etudes Op. 10, No. 9, F minor Etude in F minor is the number 9th out of twelve studies in the set of Opus 10 Etudes. Etude in F minor is a technical study composed in 1829, and is widely regarded as a good left hand etude because it promotes flexibility in the wrists and fingers. The first group of twelve, Etudes opus 10, was composed between 1829 and 1832, and published in 1833, in France, Germany and England. They were composed when Chopin was still in his teens. Like no. 3, this work is very subtle in what it sets out to teach any pianist. On a technical level, it is an exercise in legato playing of arpeggios with the left hand, with the melody remaining fully within the right hand. This etude was also another of Chopins tributes to Italian opera, as seen most clearly in the central section. The opening section is a straightforward four bar phrases in pairs, the latter providing an answer to the first. The central section is a development of the opening theme and the modulations from F minor come in rapid succession, accompanied by quickly changing dynamics, and then followed by quick accelerando and stretto. The final section is a restatement of the opening theme and from bar 45 onwards the melody is doubled on the octave and must be played con forza, but still with the left hand playing legatissimo and sotto voce. The final bars of the work must be played as quietly and as delicately as possible.
