Even if the marking is Allegro assai, playing at a Presto-like speed risks the 16th notes becoming unclear and the left hand becoming unnecessarily prominent. Therefore, regarding the tempo, for instance, it is advisable to conduct a 3/4 beat yourself and choose a tempo that does not feel excessively fast.
From this point, my personal preference comes into play. For example, if the right-hand 16th notes appearing on the third beat of measure 18 were likened to an instrument, what would it be? If the tempo is too fast, these four 16th notes would be played almost simultaneously, raising concerns about unclear articulation. Another issue, for instance, concerns the left hand in measures 17-20. The forte marking is deliberately placed below, which can become a compulsion to play loudly. However, what would be the result if the left hand in these four measures were played at an extremely fast tempo and forte? The music would become quite chaotic. Even setting aside the tempo, it is generally safer not to adhere too strictly to the forte marking here.
Furthermore, there is the issue of articulation. Please observe the slurs in the right hand from measures 1-8. Starting from the anacrusis, the slur breaks once at the second beat of measure 2. Similarly, this occurs at the second beat of measure 4, the second beat of measure 6, and so on. This should be conceptualized as violin bowing. It is understood that one completes a phrase and then lifts the bow to begin the next. Therefore, please strictly observe the breaks in these slurs.
