🇫🇷Francis Jean Marcel Poulenc ： Mouvement perpétuel No.3 FP.14

The third piece, which concludes Poulenc’s Three Perpetual Motions, is a miniature marked by the repetition of short figures and a lively flow. Its music maintains a forward-driving momentum while avoiding monotony through the shaping of phrases and subtle changes in expression. Highlights include the accents and changing sonorities that emerge within the crisp, flowing motion, as well as the impression of racing swiftly to the finish. In performance, it is important not to pursue speed alone, but to maintain an even touch with relaxed hands and fingers. Preserving lightness and clarity while carefully shaping the direction and dynamics of each phrase brings out the music’s wit and charm.
