Dmitri Borisovich Kabalevsky ： 24 Easy Pieces for Children No.9 Dance Op.39-9

This approachable dance-like miniature is marked by light rhythms and a clear sense of pulse. Within its brief span, the crisp forward motion and lively character of the melody provide the main points of interest. Performers should keep the roles of the two hands in mind and let the principal melody sing clearly and lightly. The accompaniment should support it without becoming heavy, while maintaining a steady tempo. Staccatos and accents should not be forced; a springy touch helps convey the joy of dancing. Pay close attention to dynamic changes and shape the piece with a bright, lively character.
