🇵🇱Ignacy Jan Paderewski ： 2 Pieces Prelude Capriccio Op.1-1

This work combines a Prelude and a Capriccio in a set of two pieces. Its concise structure places two contrasting characters side by side, making the change in atmosphere between them one of its main attractions. In the Prelude, careful attention to phrase breathing and the balance between the voices is essential for creating a composed, flowing character. In the Capriccio, the music comes alive when its lightness is maintained, the notes are kept even, and accents and dynamic changes are made clear without rushing. Throughout both pieces, the pedal should be used with restraint so that the texture remains clear and the contrast between the two pieces can emerge naturally.
