Description

The sole ascending waltz in E minor. Animé, Variation 4 climbs from E2 to G6 (light yellow-green) and stays there — no descent, no fold-back. Eight notes in triple time, rising continuously through the chord.

E2, E3, G4, B4, E5, G5, B5, G6: the étude builds upward in three pitch classes, arriving at G6 (light yellow-green) as the final, suspended note. Sixty-seven percent highlights — the upper-register weight of the ascending phrase carrying the palette toward light.

Animé ascending waltz is the most energetic posture in this series. The triple meter lifts the climb in three, each step forward and upward. No shadows await at the end; the étude resolves in brightness, the phrase climbing to G6's pale green and remaining there.
