“The Carnation” is one of the short piano pieces that make up The Flowers. Within its concise writing, a songlike melody and subtle harmonic shifts create a balance between accessibility and quiet shading. The piece can be heard as a coherent single arc, with the natural breathing of its phrases shaping its expression. In performance, the right-hand melody should be brought out with a gentle tone, while the accompaniment remains light and clear. Use the pedal sparingly, following the harmonic changes, and handle small dynamic nuances and subtle flexibility of tempo with care to bring out the music’s simple beauty and lingering resonance.
