About

Written for a three-octave toy piano for David Bohn's The 100-note Toy Piano Project, this tiny composition consists of exactly 100 notes and lasts only 1 minute. It performs three processes at the same time:
  1. the ambitus of three octaves collapsing into a single pitch
  2. a tempo transition from very slow to extremly fast and
  3. an insisting dynamic increase from piano to fortissimo

Despite its strict structure, the piece should be played in a fluent rubato attitude with lots of espressivo.
