🇫🇷Déodat de Séverac ： Holidays From Book 2 Chopin’s Spring

A short piece from Séverac’s *Holidays, Book 2*, its title reflecting an affectionate tribute to Chopin. Smooth, flowing movement suggestive of water gently intertwines with a singing melody, creating a delicate and intimate atmosphere. Rather than emphasizing stark contrasts, the listener can savor the way the sonority and expression subtly change within its brief sections. The right-hand melody should be shaped as a soft, long-breathed line, while the accompanying figures remain light and even. Use the pedal without allowing the sound to become blurred, and listen carefully for changes in harmony and movement in the inner voices; this brings out the work’s quiet feeling and French color.
