Robert Schumann ： Waldszenen Einsame Blumen B-Dur Op.82-3

This short piece brings a quiet, intimate lyricism to the surface. Supported by a delicate accompaniment, its melody conveys the refinement and introspective expression suggested by a solitary flower. Listen for the gentle atmosphere at the opening, the subtle change of color along the way, and the return to a sense of calm. The melody should always sing naturally, while the inner voices and accompaniment must remain carefully balanced so that they do not come forward. Use the pedal to connect the sonority without allowing it to become blurred, and preserve the breathing and pauses of each phrase to bring out the piece’s intimate character.
