🇭🇺Bartók Béla Viktor János ： Mikrokosmos Vol.2 No.64b Lines and Dots BB 105 Sz 107

In keeping with its title, “Lines and Dots” is a concise miniature that explores simple musical material from different perspectives, contrasting connected lines with the distinct contours of individual notes. Short units seem to pass from one to another, creating a clear contrast between continuous motion and notes placed like dots. It is important to maintain the overall flow while keeping each note light, clear, and even. Precise note values, with rests and spaces treated as part of the expression, bring out the forward drive of the lines and the vividness of the dots. First clarify the roles of the two hands and stabilize the tempo, then add changes in resonance and accents.
