Originally she requested that the piece should synchronize with techno music chosen by her which would be pre-recorded on a tape. As we discussed the piece over the following months, we realized that a solo piano work without a tape part would be more substantial. However, the idea of techno remained constantly between us. Finally I wrote a set of three pieces, entitled 'Techno Etudes'. The idea of the whole piece can be summarized with the three key words; techno, rhythm and speed. \u003cem\u003eKaren Tanaka\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Chester Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41281802829903,"sku":"CH61805","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/ae6749b366ee86bd01c0758e61007abb.jpg?v=1752422189"},{"product_id":"karen-tanaka-at-the-grave-of-beethoven-music-sales","title":"Karen Tanaka: At The Grave of Beethoven","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/karen-tanaka\"\u003eKaren Tanaka (1961-)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Set of Parts\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong class=\"original-instrumentation-title\"\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"original-instrumentation\"\u003eString Quartet (Violin I, Violin II, Viola, Cello)\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWork\u003c\/strong\u003e: At the Grave of Beethoven (1999)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-barcode\"\u003e884088840167\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-width\"\u003e8.5\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan class=\"book-length\"\u003e11.0\u003c\/span\u003e inches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAt the Grave of Beethoven\u003c\/em\u003e was commissioned by the Brodsky Quartet, on the occasion of the bicentenary anniversary of Beethoven's opus 18.
