“Fountain of Diana” is a fluid, delicate miniature that suggests sparkling water in motion. Flowing broken-chord figures trace a fine current, while a singing melody rises distinctly above them. Its brilliance is balanced by a quiet afterglow, making the interplay of voices and the changing resonance especially rewarding to hear. In performance, it is important to keep the accompaniment even without making the touch hard, allowing the melody to emerge naturally. The pedal should support the resonance without causing muddiness; careful shaping of phrase direction and dynamic changes brings out the music’s transparent flow. Avoid rushing the tempo and aim for an even movement throughout the details.
