A great test for advanced pianists, Jettatura is an uncomplicated moto perpetuo, and another example of Psathas's gift for creating high-energy, compelling works. Requiring heavy and impassioned fingering, Jettatura is shot through with defiance and aggression. The left hand hammers a stream of ostinatos while the right hand flies almost incautiously over the keys, stretching to the piano's upper register.
