How could she have chosen precisely this Étude, the least interesting for those who do not know that it is intended for the black keys, instead of something better! It would have been better to remain silent. It has been a repertoire piece of pianists since Chopin's time and has inspired numerous exercises, arrangements and paraphrases. The so-called "Black Key Étude" is one of the composer's most popular. This melodic figuration is accompanied by the left hand in staccato chords and octaves. This work is characterized by the rapid triplet figuration played by the right hand exclusively on black keys, except for one note, a F natural in measure 66. It was first published in 1833 in France, Germany, and England as the fifth piece of his Études Op. 10. Étude Op. 10, No. 5 in G ♭ major is a study for solo piano composed by Frédéric Chopin in 1830.
