🇺🇦Nikolai Kapustin ： Three Impromptus No.2 Op.66-2

This impromptu combines Kapustin’s jazz idiom with classical writing, creating a lively sense of forward motion. Fine syncopations and accents propel the music, while vivid changes of character and brilliant movement emerge within its clear rhythmic framework. A key point of interest is the contrast between its different passages and the way they are connected into a natural overall flow. In performance, it is important to maintain rhythmic precision without overemphasizing the accents, drawing out the vitality through a light touch and clear articulation. Pedaling should be used with restraint so that the texture does not become blurred and the contours of the sound remain distinct.
