🇭🇺Bartók Béla Viktor János ： For Children Revised Edition Vol.2 No.13 Allegro BB 53 Sz 42

Placed as No. 13 in Volume 2 of For Children (Revised Edition), this is a compact Allegro piece. Within its brief span, it concentrates a forward-moving rhythmic energy and crisp motion, while exchanges between the hands and changes of register add momentum to the music. From the opening, the beat should remain clear, with attention given to the shape of each phrase. Avoid rushing the tempo, keep the shorter notes light and even, and take care not to make the accents sound mechanical. Bring out the voice carrying the melody while keeping the accompanying part restrained; shaping natural dynamics and a sense of tension and release within the short phrases allows the appeal of Bartók’s concise writing to emerge.
