🇺🇦Nikolai Kapustin ： Ten Inventions Allegretto giocoso No.3 Op.73-3

No. 3 from Kapustin’s Ten Inventions. As indicated by the marking Allegretto giocoso, the music conveys lightness and playfulness while unfolding through a dialogue between multiple voices. Listening for the exchange of short motifs and the momentum of the rhythm makes it easier to follow the role of each voice and the overall flow. In performance, it is important not only to balance the notes between the hands, but also to bring out the leading melody appropriately and give the detailed movement clarity without stiffness. Maintaining the tempo while shaping the direction of the phrases and observing the accents brings out the work’s intellectual sense of structure and lively appeal.
