The third piece in 5 Sketches, The Forest Lake is an introspective and poetic piano miniature that evokes a quiet lake and a deep forest. Rather than emphasizing a large dramatic development, it allows changes in melody and harmony to unfold gradually, shaping an atmosphere through resonances that make thoughtful use of space. Its appeal lies in the sense of distance created by changes of register and dynamics, as well as the delicate shades that emerge within the flow. In performance, the melody should be allowed to rise gently above a light accompaniment, while the pedal should not blur the resonance by connecting it too continuously. A patient tempo and careful attention to the breath of each phrase and the fading of each sound reveal the rich expression beneath the stillness.
