Franz Peter Schubert ： 12 Waltzes 17 Ländler and 9 Ecossaises | Waltz No.6 in h-moll D145 Op.18

This A minor waltz is included in Schubert’s collection of dances. While retaining the light character of a dance, it conveys the shading and delicate emotion distinctive of the minor mode. Within its concise waltz flow, the contrast between the singing quality of the melody and the pulse of the accompaniment is a particular highlight. Keep the right-hand melody smooth, while allowing the bass and chords in the left hand to support the natural sway of the triple meter without becoming too heavy. By shaping the resonance at the ends of phrases carefully and letting dynamic changes unfold without haste, the intimate and refined atmosphere comes into relief.
