VI Autumn in Warsaw. Conceived as a contemporary suite for piano, the score explores very varied atmospheres, alternating dense textures, resonance effects, and dynamic contrasts.

Composed in 1985, the work fits within a modern aesthetic where the instrument is approached as a true laboratory of timbres. The indicated level Difficult makes it a relevant choice for advanced pianists, in conservatories or in advanced training, wishing to enrich their repertoire with rich and demanding writing.
