🇷🇺Dmitri Borisovich Kabalevsky ： 24 Preludes No.2 Scherzando Op.38-2

A light-footed and witty prelude with the character of a scherzando, or playful manner. Within its brief span, crisp rhythms and buoyant motion make a vivid impression, while the music is propelled forward by its graceful humor and momentum. Highlights include the changes of expression that arise within the lively flow and the sense of tension maintained through the ending. In performance, do not pursue speed alone: keep each note clear and even, while bringing out contrasts in dynamics and accents with vitality. Agile playing that retains its lightness, together with a clear sense of direction in the short phrases, helps convey the work’s humor and refinement.
