🇺🇦Nikolai Kapustin ： 6 Pieces for Piano No.5 Allegro scherzando Op.133

This miniature is characterized by lively momentum and a witty, spirited character. In keeping with the Allegro scherzando indication, crisp rhythms and buoyant gestures keep the music in motion, while harmonic colors reminiscent of jazz add further brilliance. The music unfolds through exchanges of short motives and phrases, and one of its attractions is the sense of changing scenes within its energetic flow. In performance, it is important to maintain a firm pulse without letting the tempo run away, and to coordinate the accents in both hands clearly. A light touch and carefully shaped dynamic nuances will further bring out its wit and vitality.
