“Refrain du gondolier” is an étude marked by the combination of a songlike melody and a gently flowing accompaniment. Throughout the piece, the expressive character of the melody is sustained, while changes in phrase shape and register create subtle shifts in atmosphere. Highlights include the moments when the main melody naturally rises above the accompaniment and the way the music gradually gathers itself toward the close. In performance, keep the left hand light and supple, and shape the right-hand melody in long, breathing phrases. Use the pedal in accordance with the harmonic changes so that the sound does not become blurred, maintaining a sense of gentle motion without losing the flow of the beat.
