🇭🇺Bartók Béla Viktor János ： For Children Revised Edition Vol.2 No.20 Tag BB 53 Sz 42

True to its title, “Tag” suggests a game of pursuit through lively rhythms and a musical flow in which short phrases seem to interact. The piece unfolds in small interconnected units, with changes in momentum bringing shifts of expression; one of its pleasures lies in sensing the character of each section as it progresses. In performance, avoid relying on speed alone: clarify the rhythmic profile and accents, and keep the exchanges between the hands light and agile. Preserve the contrasts of dynamics, coordinate the ends of notes, and bring out the vivid, playful motion of the music.
