Conlon Nancarrow: Study # 8 for Player Piano
The first acceleration study (Kyle Gann: Annotated List of Works)
One of Nancarrow's most important early studies, where for the first time he employs techniques that later would assume central significance: the canon form and continuous velocity shifts; the composition is mostly in three parts; for the first time Nancarrow does not employ bar lines and conventional note script in the notation - he indicates the note lengths with strokes after the notes (Jürgen Hocker)
