William L. Gillock ： Piano All the Way 2 Step by Step 2

This learner-oriented miniature is included in Piano All the Way 2. It places emphasis on developing a sense of musical flow while carefully checking the notes and rhythms in a gradual, manageable way. Focusing on the phrasing of each short section makes the direction of the melody and its natural breathing easier to perceive. Begin by keeping a steady pulse and balancing the hands, then bring out the differences in dynamics and articulation clearly. Rather than rushing the tempo, listen to the resonance of each note and aim to combine lightness with a singing quality of expression.
