Volitant means “able to fly.” In this piece, your fingers and arms are demonstrating that they are “volitant” as they ascend the keyboard for each progression. Work towards a feeling of weightlessness so as to create an ethereal sound. Be sure to lean to the right as you ascend through the four octaves, lifting off gently for each rolled chord and then recentering your body to prepare for the next sequence.
