About

Roschitz is a short piano piece written for the 80th birthday of Dr. Karlheinz Roschitz who worked many decades as an influencial music curator at Alte Schmiede in Vienna. There it was premiered by Kaori Nishii on January 7th, 2020.

Throughout the whole piece, the sustain pedal must be depressed in order to create a plethora of beautiful resonances around the central note C, enriched by harmonies built from symmetric intervals around this note.
