🇩🇪Felix Mendelssohn ： Song without Words in Es-Dur MWV U 68

One of Mendelssohn’s Songs without Words, this piece centers on a concise and approachable melody that suggests a vocal work without words. It is important to sustain the right-hand melody in a singing manner while keeping the left-hand accompaniment light and carefully shaped, clearly distinguishing their dynamic levels and breathing. Listening for the flow of the melody and its changes in expression helps the structure of the piece emerge more naturally. Identify the peaks of each phrase, move unhurriedly into the next phrase, and use the pedal in accordance with the harmonic changes without allowing the sound to become blurred; this brings out the music’s simple lyricism and delicate shading.
