Alkan’s Étude in G minor, Op. 39 No. 3, “Scherzo diabolico,” begins with quiet bass fragments separated by silences (mm. 1–15). The Prestissimo scherzo joins sweeping arpeggiated figures, sharply accented chords, and recurring echoes of the opening (mm. 16–199). A chordal Trio occupies mm. 200–298, after which the scherzo returns (mm. 299–378). Low repeated figures recede through mm. 379–394, and five Largamente measures of massive chords close the work (mm. 395–399).
