🇮🇹Muzio Clementi ： Two sonatas and two capriccios for the piano forte Capriccio No.2 in F-Dur C.2 Op.34

Clementi’s Capriccio No. 2 is shaped by freely unfolding ideas that shift one after another, offering a contrast between nimble motion and lyrical expression. Beyond following the overall flow, listening for the exchange of phrases and the changes in character from one passage to the next brings out the interest of its design. In performance, the smaller notes should not be rushed; they should be clearly articulated with an even, well-defined touch. Carefully shaping the dynamic range, avoiding excessive force in decorative movement, and naturally contrasting it with the singing passages brings out an expression that combines spontaneity with refinement.
