The second piece in Barber’s *Souvenirs*, Op. 28, this piano miniature is characterized by the buoyant pulse of a schottische and an appealing touch of wit. A melody supported by clear rhythms unfolds with changing expressions that bring liveliness to the music. Its particular charm lies in the contrast between crisp accents and flowing phrases. In performance, the rhythmic bounce should remain consistent while the shifting dynamics are shaped carefully; the accompaniment should not become too heavy, allowing the light dance gestures and refined sonority to emerge.
