Summertime Variations, Op. 20 (Say)

Movements

Notes

Summertime Variations is the third arrangement Fazil Say has made of Gershwin’s Summertime – and the first for solo piano. It begins and ends very quietly and cantabile with a meditation on the well-known opening motif. The complete melody then forms the basis for the swinging and extremely virtuoso Presto Variations of the central section. Source: Fazıl Say
