History

The first public performance of this étude (together with those of Études 1 and 8) was given by Andrés Segovia on 5 March 1947 at Wellesley College in Wellesley, Massachusetts..[1]

Structure

The piece is in E major and is marked Très animé.[2]

Analysis

Étude No. 7 is a study, first in rapid scales, then a section of arpeggios supporting a lyrical melody played entirely on the first string, and a return to the scales, creating a ternary (ABA) form.[3]
