"Estudos Intervalares" is a composition for solo piano by Brazilian composer Edino Krieger. It was composed in 1959 and premiered the same year in Rio de Janeiro. The piece consists of six movements, each exploring a different interval. The first movement, "Segundas," focuses on the interval of a second. It is characterized by a playful and rhythmic melody that is repeated throughout the piece. The second movement, "Terças," explores the interval of a third. It is more contemplative and introspective, with a slower tempo and more complex harmonies. The third movement, "Quartas," is characterized by a sense of tension and release, as the interval of a fourth is used to create a sense of instability that is resolved through the use of dissonant harmonies. The fourth movement, "Quintas," is more energetic and lively, with a fast tempo and a playful melody that is built around the interval of a fifth. The fifth movement, "Sextas," is more introspective and contemplative, with a slower tempo and a more complex harmonic structure. The interval of a sixth is used to create a sense of tension and release, as the melody moves between dissonant and consonant harmonies. The final movement, "Sétimas," is characterized by a sense of mystery and intrigue, as the interval of a seventh is used to create a sense of tension and anticipation that is resolved through the use of unexpected harmonies. Overall, "Estudos Intervalares" is a challenging and complex piece that showcases Krieger's mastery of harmony and melody. It is a testament to his skill as a composer and his ability to create music that is both intellectually stimulating and emotionally engaging.
