This collection consists of three miniatures, each with its own character, yet united by music that makes full use of the piano’s sonority. Alongside lyrical passages, rhythmic motion and harmonic color leave a strong impression, while shifts between tension and release can be felt even within these brief pieces. It is important to bring out the distinct character of each miniature and shape the direction of every phrase with care. At the same time as allowing the melody to sing fully, performers should differentiate the accompaniment figures and inner voices, using the pedal judiciously so that the sonority remains clear and the work’s delicate nuances can emerge.
