🇩🇪Georg Friedrich Händel ： Allegro in C-Dur HWV 472

Clear rhythms and a light sense of motion guide this concise and approachable keyboard work. Its well-shaped phrases seem to pass from one to another, while repetition helps maintain the overall musical flow. A point of interest is the way the melody in the right hand can be brought forward while the left hand retains an independent sense of direction. In performance, keep the smaller notes from becoming hurried, maintain an even pulse, and allow natural breaths at the ends of phrases. Decorative movement should be played lightly and clearly; rather than exaggerating the dynamics, aim to balance transparency of sound with forward momentum.
