🇮🇹Ferruccio Busoni ： Prelude No.6 in h-moll Op.37-6

No. 6 from Busoni’s 24 Preludes is a concentrated miniature that traces a progression between tension and release through limited musical material. The roles of melody and accompaniment shift according to the musical setting, while the accumulation of short phrases shapes the overall flow. In the central part, listen closely to changes in sonority and the widening of the register, and carefully convey the sense of movement toward the close. In performance, it is important to avoid making the meter sound mechanical, instead maintaining the motion of the inner voices while shaping the direction of each phrase. Use the pedal only where it does not blur the sonority, and bring out the shades within the concise writing through contrasts of dynamics and subtle fluctuations of tempo.
