They are studies in that each piece emphasizes a technical or pianistic element; they are 'character' studies because each one is inspired by someone I know. The 'Nocturne for Left Hand Alone' is for my longtime piano teacher, Sophia Rosoff; she has a special fondness for Rachmaninoff and Scriabin. 'The Little Spinning Song' is for fabric artist Penny Sisto. The 'Study in Thirds and Sixths' is for my cat, Spike; though he is now in the 'great litterbox in the sky,' this recalls his spirited and sneaky personality.' - Fred Hersch, 2004\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem No:\u003c\/b\u003e    98-EP68046\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e    Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e    24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e    Edition Peters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eYear Published:\u003c\/b\u003e    2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"ALFRED","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67732212220095,"sku":"ALF EP68046","price":25.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1335\/9063\/files\/98-EP68046.jpg?v=1792732454","url":"https:\/\/www.imaginethismusic.com\/products\/alf-98-ep68046","provider":"Imagine This Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
