    Musicologist Hugo Leichtentritt (1874–1951) calls the étude a "moto perpetuo".

  7. Carl Nielsen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Nielsen

    Nielsen is perhaps most closely associated outside Denmark with his six symphonies, written between 1892 and 1925. The works have much in common: they are all just over 30 minutes long, brass instruments are a key component of the orchestration, and they all exhibit unusual changes in tonality, which heighten the dramatic tension. [47]
