🇩🇪Felix Mendelssohn ： 6 Children Pieces No.2 in Es-Dur MWV.U170 Op.72

No. 2 from Mendelssohn’s Six Children’s Pieces is a miniature centered on an approachable melody, in which singing phrases and light movement blend naturally. Within its compact spans, the musical expression shifts, while the roles of melody and accompaniment remain clearly defined. In performance, the right-hand melody should be kept smooth, with the left hand shaped at a restrained and balanced volume. Carefully identify the peaks of each phrase, avoid exaggerating dynamic changes, and use the pedal only enough to preserve clarity. This piece rewards not only technical accuracy but also an awareness of the breathing of each voice, allowing a natural flow to emerge.
