🇩🇪Franz Joseph Haydn ： Flute Clock Piece No.31 in C-Dur Hob.XIX:31

Belonging to a group of miniatures written for a mechanical clock, this piece is appealing for its concise ideas and clear sense of meter. Within its brief span, the contours of the melody are presented with precision, while even its limited musical movement conveys a light, agile character. Listening for the repetitive flow that suggests a regular cycle, and carefully tracing phrase divisions and harmonic changes, helps bring the structure into focus. In performance, maintain a steady pulse, avoid making the sound too heavy, and give careful attention to the balance between the voices and the clarity of each individual note.
