🇩🇪Johannes Brahms ： 51 Übungen für Klavier No.25a-c in h-moll WoO.6

Nos. 25a–c comprise three studies that explore the movement of the notes and independence of the hands within concise musical units. Each exercise calls for more than simply playing the notes in sequence: the performer must organize the flow of the beat and distinguish the roles of melody and accompaniment. A key point throughout is to maintain a sense of phrase direction on the foundation of even fingerwork and clear articulation. In practice, it is helpful to proceed carefully through the details, checking the balance between the hands, the placement of accents, and the full value of each note. Flexible breathing that avoids a mechanical manner gives the concise writing musical coherence.
