No. 3 |
A photocopy of a Study No. 3 is held at the Lincoln Center Library. It is
apparently not identical to the Boogie-Woogie Suite. |
|
No. 3 |
Five-movement Boogie-Woogie Suite. 3a is probably Nancarrow’s first
composition for player piano; 1949–50. |
|
3a: Over a boogie-woogie bass at racing speed tower as many as seven
melodic layers or rhythmic structures.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 3a |

No. 5 |
Strict rhythmic figures in the bass are superimposed with rapid runs and
chordal motifs. Two-part harmony at the beginning but ending in thirteen
parts.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 5 |

No. 7 |
At six minutes, this is one of the longest and most complex of the early
studies. Striking rhythmic structures alternate with lyrical passages. The
eight-part composition ends with racing arpeggios.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 7 |
|
No. 8 |
One of the most important of Nancarrow’s early studies and the first to
use techniques that would later become central: canon form and continual
changes in tempo. Most of the composition is in three parts. It was also
the first time Nancarrow dispensed with bar lines and conventional
notation (the duration of the notes is indicated by lines behind the note
heads).
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 8 |
|
No. 9 |
Varied meters and tempos, with predominately in the ratios 3:4:5 and with
ostinatos in the bass and treble ranges.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 9 |
|
No. 10 |
The last of his compositions to be influenced by jazz throughout. A blues
melody sounds above a series of chords in the left hand. Despite its
rhythmic complexity, this piece, with its quiet dynamics, is one of
Nancarrow’s most melodic works. Originally in ABA form. The first section
was dropped in the revised version now considered authoritative.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 10 |
|
No. 11 |
Isorhythmic study using a technique from fourteenth-century motets (talea).
On the first page of the manuscript, which still uses conventional bar
lines, there are thirty time changes.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No.11 |
|
No. 12 |
Nancarrow’s most emotional study, influenced by Spanish flamenco.
Melancholy flamenco melodies are accompanied by stylized guitar arpeggios
and the rhythmic clapping of flamenco dancers.

No. 13 |
Preliminary study for the Seven Canonic Studies (Siete piezas canónicas)
Nos. 13–19, which were originally united as Rhythmic Study No. 13.
Nancarrow never published the music for this study.

No. 14 |
Canon
4/5. The first part begins
at tempo 88; shortly thereafter the second part enters, two octaves and a
fifth higher, at tempo 110.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 14 |
|
No. 15 |
Canon
3/4. Two-part canonic study
with a tempo ratio of 3:4. The voices are three octaves apart and the
faster meter alternates between the two parts, so that they begin and end
together.

Canon
3/5. Three-movement canonic
sketch.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 16 |

No. 18 |
Canon 3/4.
Two-part
canon.
The second voice begins in the treble clef only after the first has gone a
third of its way, but it is 1/3 faster so that it catches up to the first
voice for the final chord. The work can be seen as a precursor of Study
No. 40b.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 18 |
|
No. 19 |
Canon
12/15/20.
Three-part canon with the same tempo ratios as
No. 17. The entries of
the second and third parts is timed such that the three voices end
together.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 19 |
|
No. 20 |
Beginning with No. 20 Nancarrow abandoned the standard system of bars for
good, usually notating the durations with lines behind the note heads. No.
20 is a study in note durations with as many as eight parts with the
pitches very close together. It was probably written around 1965 but is
strikingly similar to Ligeti’s Monument for two pianos, which was
written in 1976.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 20 |
|
No. 21 |
Canon
X. Strict two-part canon
with the voices moving a different speeds. The bass part begins slowly
with a twelve-tone row at about four notes per second. Shortly thereafter
the treble part begins at a speed of thirty-nine notes per second. Whereas
the bass part accelerates continuously, the treble part decelerates at the
same rate until both voices reach the same pace around the middle of the
composition. Then the bass part overtakes the treble part and the piece
ends with a hurricane of sound in the bass part at 120 beats per second.
1961.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 21 (Canon X) |
|
No. 22 |
Canon
1%, 1½%, 2¼%. A three-part
canon in which the parts accelerate at different rates: the lowest voice
by 1%, the second voice by 1½% and the third voice by 2¼%. Until the
middle the speeds increase constantly, but then they decelerate at the
same rate until they return to their initial speeds at the end.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 22 |
|
No. 23 |
This mostly two-part composition has three parts in the middle section
only. As in Study No. 21 Nancarrow exploited the possibility of constant
acceleration and deceleration. The treble part has a monophonic series of
notes that accelerates until it is ’unplayable.’ Following a rallentando,
the composition ends slowly and quietly.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 23 |
|
No. 24 |
Canon
14/15/16. Predominately tonal
three-part canon. In the middle section the voices condense into
aggregates of sound such as rapid repetitions, chains of trills and
glissandi.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 24 |
|
No. 25 |
One of Nancarrow’s few compositions in which he dispensed with strict
form. Although it contains canonic elements with voices in different
tempos, it is dominated by a rhapsodic character. It is thus one of
Nancarrow’s most varied compositions. Arpeggiated harmonic series open the
work, which exploits all the possibilities of the player piano. Racing
series of pianissimo notes produce clouds of sound. Several aggregates of
sound suggest that Nancarrow used graphic elements when punching the roll.
The frequent changes in dynamics and the use of the sustaining pedal are
notable. The piece ends in a tornado of sound at two hundred notes per
second with the right pedal held down.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 25 |
|
No. 26 |
Canon 1/1.
Seven-part canon with a tempo ratio of 1:1, notated with whole notes with
no rhythmic differentiation.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 26 |
|
No. 27 |
Canon
5%/6%/8%/11%. The composition
begins with an ostinato at a fixed speed around which are grouped as many
as eight parts at different speeds, in some cases accelerating or
decelerating. Nancarrow saw the ostinato as the ticking of an ontological
clock (world clock) with events running along beside it at different
speeds.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 27 |
|
No. 28 |
A complex experimental composition. The parts do not accelerate
continuously but rather in established steps. For the musical material
Nancarrow employed scales at different speeds. He introduced chords at
regular intervals to provide a temporal orientation.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 28 |
|
No. 29 |
Originally planned for prepared piano (à la Cage). This study has as many
as eight parts with staccato repetitions of notes at various speeds. The
work recalls the ticking of clocks at different rates. Nancarrow never
grew to like the piece and once commented: ’I should have thrown it away a
long time ago, but I never had the heart.’
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 29 |
|
No. 30 |
For prepared piano, circa 1965. Because Nancarrow had problems with the
preparation, he ’rejected‘ this composition and returned to unprepared
piano. A example of a preparation may be found in Kyle Gann, The Music
of Conlon Nancarrow, page 172. The composition was never notated,
though Nancarrow did make a recording, which has since been released by
Other Minds on OM 1002-2. For a recording on Dabringhaus & Grimm (MDG 645
1403-2), the preparation was done by Steffen Schleiermacher following
Nancarrow’s instructions.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 30 |

No. 31 |
Canon
21/24/25. This three-part
canon has three movements: fast, slow, fast. The lyric middle movement is
framed by two rhythmically structured sections.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 31 |
|
No. 32 |
Canon
5/6/7/8. Whereas in the
previous studies a specific speed was assigned to each part, here
Nancarrow breaks with that scheme and various speeds ’wander‘ between the
parts.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 32 |
|
No. 33 |
Canon
. Two-part canon with a tempo ratio of the square root
of two (1.414 . . .) to two. This was Nancarrow’s first use of an
’irrational’ tempo, that is to say, the layers have no common denominator.
Even so, the different speeds are not restricted to specific parts: rather
they alternate between the parts such that the two voices begin and end
together. Calmly striding series of chords determine the character of the
composition for long stretches and only at the end does it become livelier.
Nancarrow considered Study No. 33 to be one of his most important studies.
Circa
1968.

Canon 9/10/11.
The individual voices are subdivided into units of 4/5/6.
Circa 1969.

No. 35 |
A composition complex rhythm heavily influenced by jazz. Circa
1979.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 35 |
|
No. 36 |
Canon
17/18/19/20. An example of
different fixed speeds in specific voices. In this four-part canon all
four parts are absolutely identical, apart from their speed. The first
part begins in the bass at tempo 85, followed by the second at tempo 90.
The third part begins at tempo 95 while the last part, the treble voice,
is at tempo 100. The faster parts pursue the slowest one and around the
middle of the composition all four parts meet. Then the faster voices
overtake the bass part and the fourth voice ends first, followed by the
third and second parts. The slowest voice, the bass, concludes the work.
Circa 1970.

Canon
150//1605/7//168¾//180//187½//200//210//225//240//250//262½//281¼.
At about ten minutes, this is the longest of Nancarrow’s studies.
Twelve-part canon with twelve different speeds that correspond to the
ratios of the vibrations in the notes of a chromatic scale. Nancarrow
considered Study No. 37 to be his most important composition. 1969.

Study for two synchronized player pianos.
40a: Canon
for one player piano.
Two-part canon with a tempo ratio
based on the irrational natural constants e (2.718....) to pi (3.142....)
with many chromatic glissandi.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 40 |
|
|
|
40b: Canon
Four-part double canon for two synchronized player
pianos. Piano 1 plays 40a. Piano 2 enters about twenty seconds later and
also plays 40a, but more quickly, so that Pianos 1 and 2 reach the final
chord at the same time. Circa 1975. Premiere with two synchronized player
pianos on October 14, 1994 in Donaueschingen. |
|
No. 41 |
Canons for one and two player pianos. |
|
|
41a: Canon for the first player piano
|
|
41b: Canon for the second player piano.
|
|
41c: Canon for the two synchronized player pianos
Both canons are played by both player pianos according to a precisely
determined tempo scheme. Premiere with two synchronized player pianos on
March 20, 1995, at the Westdeutscher Rundfunk in Cologne. |
|
|
No. 42 |
Study with ten different tempos. Commissioned by Betty Freeman. Premiere
on November 2, 1981, in Los Angeles.

No. 44 |
Aleatory Round
for two player pianos. In contrast to Nancarrow’s other compositions for
two player pianos, this piece is aleatoric in character. Commissioned by
Betty Freeman; completed in 1981. Premiere on December 6, 1982, in Los
Angeles. |
|
No. 45 |
Betty Freeman Suite.
This work, originally in five movements, was written in 1982–83 and was
premiered on January 30, 1984, in Los Angeles. Later Nancarrow decided the
twenty-minute piece was too long, so he rejected three of the five
movements and wrote a new movement. This three-movement version is
considered a second Boogie-Woogie Suite. |
|
45a: A “limping” boogie-woogie bass runs through the whole composition—Nancarrow
called it a “spastic rhythm”; above it move highly defamiliarized jazz
melodies.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 45a |
|
45b: Slow blues with complicated tempo ratios of 3/4/5/7.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 45b |
|
45c: High point of the three-movement version. In this study Nancarrow
uses a technique that goes back to the American composer Henry Cowell:
After rapid chromatic glissandi unplayable by human hand, most of the
notes are suddenly muted; only a few of the notes resound as a chord.
Cowell used this technique in Aeolian Harp. 45c begins with such a
glissando followed by a “spastic rhythm” from 45a.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 45c
45d: See Abandoned Study No. 45 “Discard.” |
|
No. 46 |
Complex study with tempo ratios 3/4/6 and unusual rhythms (“spastic
rhythms”), written between 1984 and 1987.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player

|
No. 47 |
Canon 5/7
with racing arpeggios and chains of trills, written prior to 1984.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 47 |
|
No. 48 |
Originally No. 39. Complex composition for two player pianos with tempo
ratio of 60/61. 48a and 48b are two ’autonomous’ compositions. 48c
combines both these works on two player pianos. Commissioned by the
European Broadcasting Union. Premiere on May 12, 1980, Radio Bremen.
Premiere with two synchronized player pianos on October 17, 1997 in
Donaueschingen. 1975–77. |
|
No. 49 |
49a–c: Three Canons 4/5/6. With this three-movement, jazz-influenced
composition Nancarrow applied (unsuccessfully) for the Grawemeyer Prize.
The relatively simple tempo ratios could certainly be performed by today’s
orchestras. For that reason Nancarrow wanted to rework this piece into a
three-movement work for player piano and orchestra. Ultimately he was not
able to realize this desire. Nancarrow used the same tempo ratios and the
same thematic materialin all the movements. Circa 1987. |
|
49a: Fast, complex movement. The three parts enter one after the other,
beginning with the slowest part, the bass. The connection to Nancarrow’s
jazz past is clearly audible.
Conlon Nancarrow, Study for Player
Piano No. 49a |
|
49b: Jazz-influenced slow and quiet movement.

Para Yoko |
Nancarrow’s last composition for player piano. It is a piece with several
parts at various speeds but not a strict canon. 1991.
Conlon Nancarrow, Para Yoko |
|
For Ligeti |
Nancarrow’s present for Ligeti’s sixty-fifth birthday. Premiered on
October 17, 1988 at the Hamburgische Staatsoper. Nancarrow used older
compositions for this work. Felix Meyer of the Paul Sacher Stiftung
identified the work as a rejected part of Study No. 3.
Conlon Nancarrow, Piece for Ligeti |
|
Abandoned Study No. 1. |
This roll, which was found among Nancarrow’s papers, served as the basis
for the first movement of the String Quartet No. 3. Now—like the other
abandoned studies—in the collections of the Paul Sacher Stiftung. |
|
Abandoned Study No. 2. |
This composition served as the basis for the second movement of the String
Quartet No. 3. |
|
Abandoned Study No. 3. |
This composition served as the basis for the third movement of the String
Quartet No. 3. |
|
Abandoned Study No. 4. |
Corresponds to the third movement of the String Quartet No. 3 from bar 252
onward. |
|
Abandoned Study No. 5. |
An unidentified composition found among Nancarrow’s papers. |
|
|
Abandoned Studies Nos. 1, 2 and 4 are also referred to as Trilogy A, B and
C. |
|
Abandoned Study 45, “Discard” |
This roll, which was found among Nancarrow’s papers and is now in the
collection of the Paul Sacher Stiftung, was apparently rejected by
Nancarrow when ordering the movements of the Betty Freeman Suite
(No. 45). |
|
Contraption |
A composition for Trimpin’s
IPP (Instant Prepared Piano), a mechanical, computer-controlled, prepared
piano. Nancarrow specified the tempo ratios and Carlos Sandoval worked out
the piece. 1993. |
|
Others |
Nancarrow transferred his Sonatina, two movements from his First
String Quartet and Tango? to piano rolls. |
|
Piece for Tape |
Circa
1949 Nancarrow
experimented with tapes. He recorded various drum sounds, cut the tape
into pieces and reassembled the parts in a rhythmic arrangement. |
|
Musique concrète |
Circa 1948 Nancarrow
experimented with a mechanical percussion orchestra. It did not live up to
his expectations, but he made a recording before disassembling it. |

For piano, circa 1935. Published in New Music Edition in 1938. |
|
Toccata |
Circa 1935, first
published in New Music Edition in 1938. Originally for piano and
violin. Because it was so difficult to perform, Nancarrow punched the
piano part for player piano around 1978. First performed in Berlin in
1980. |

manuscript (the beginning of the third movement) are still lost. Sonic Art
Edition, 1994. |
|
Sonatina |
For piano, circa 1940. Premiered in 1951 by James Sykes. The original
