🇵🇱Frederic Chopin ： Mazurka no.6 a-moll Op.7-2

Within its unhurried pace, this miniature combines the gentle sway of the mazurka’s triple meter with a songful melody. The opening theme is simple yet rich in resonance, and repetitions and changes of character trace a path from intimate speech to fleeting shades of expression. The left-hand accompaniment should remain light, allowing the right-hand melody to be heard clearly. Rather than making the surface of the beat too even, shape the accents and ornaments naturally; a restrained flexibility of tempo at structural points can bring out the dance’s suppleness and lyricism. Avoid rushing, and treat the resonance of the notes and the rests as an integral part of the expression.
