🇩🇪Clara Schumann ： Caprice in Waltz Form Op.2

Built on the supple triple meter of a waltz, this piece combines the lighthearted character of a caprice with a singing sense of melody. A key point is to bring the melody clearly to the fore above the flowing accompaniment while connecting the changes of expression from one passage to the next naturally. The rhythm should not be made overly mechanical; instead, its gentle flexibility should be maintained with elegance. The right-hand melody should be shaped with full expression, especially toward the peaks of each phrase, while the left hand supports it lightly and softly. Decorative gestures and quick notes should not be rushed, so that the flow and grace of the dance remain intact.
