Heitor Villa-Lobos's Étude No. 3, part of his Twelve Études for Guitar, was first published by Max Eschig, Paris, in 1953.
Structure
editThe piece, strongly influenced by the didactic works of earlier composers for the guitar, is in D major and is marked Allegro moderato.[1]
Analysis
editÉtude No. 3 is an arpeggio study, like the two preceding études, but incorporating slurred notes (as in Étude No. 2) and barre chords.[1]
