Description
No accents, no outsiders — pure triad. Seven notes trace a valley from Eb1 to G7, Animé, mf, legato, in four. The third dominates: G3, G4, G6, and G7 appear across four octaves, red-orange in the middle register warming to pale silver at the top. Eb1 and Eb3 hold the root in dark blue-violet, and Bb3 provides a single appearance of the fifth. The strongest dynamic alongside the opening study, the phrase played with clear presence.
Shadow is heavy — nearly half the canvas is dark, Eb1 commanding a large share of near-black at the base. The midtones carry the chord's warmest color where G3 and G4 bring red-orange and orange into the middle. The upper thirds at G6 and G7 dissolve into pale light, but their brightness is modest against the dark mass below. No yellow-orange accent to mediate — the chord speaks entirely in its own tones.
The variation where the third finally outnumbers every other tone — Eb Major seen through its warmest member.
