🇭🇺Bartók Béla Viktor János ： Mikrokosmos Vol.3 No.94 Tale Once Upon a Time BB 105 Sz 107

True to its story-like title, this piece unfolds as short musical ideas seem to pass from one to another, suggesting changes of scene. Within its limited range and concise writing, it makes effective use of rhythmic variety, dynamic contrast, and the opposition between legato and crisp articulation. Avoid rushing the ends of phrases, and connect each idea naturally to what follows. Bring out the melodic line while keeping the accompaniment restrained, shaping a speech-like expression and a sense of lightness appropriate to each scene.
