Description

F# octaves — six notes ascending from F#2 to E6. Three F# notes — F#2, F#4, F#5 — with yellow at E5 and E6, and red-orange at G5 as accents. Played Animé, p, legato, in three — a soft waltz climbing from darkness to light.

Green at F#2 is near-black, brightening at F#4 and F#5. Yellow at E5 and E6 warms the upper registers — the ninth's hue, a familiar warm visitor from the major ninth chord. Red-orange at G5 adds a second warm accent between two green notes. The canvas moves from cool dark green to warm yellow at the top.

A simpler F# study — three octave tones, three accents, the green gradient climbing from black toward light, the yellow and red-orange visitors warming the upper half. Quiet and restrained, the waltz ascending gently.
