Due to its sparse texture and short duration, the performance presents a very difficult challenge. For such pieces, it is advisable to divide the phrases into segments of a few measures.
For example, in the first half, it is possible to divide it into three sections: measures 1-2, measures 3-4, and measures 5-8. One can then consider this as an opera:
- Measures 1-2: a feeling of anticipation for something.
- Measures 3-4: a feeling of increasing tension.
- Measures 5-8: a feeling of enjoyment mixed with a sense of doubt.
In the latter half, for example, measures 9-10 could represent a slightly sentimental mood; measures 11-12, a feeling of relief (though this phrase is the same as measures 3-4); and measures 13-16, a very joyful and cheerful feeling, and so on. Furthermore, it can also be interpreted as a conversation.
For instance, the GGGG in the melody at measures 13, beats 2-3, could be likened to human laughter.
The important thing is to vary the expression for each phrase and perform with different moods. Please consider the composer's psychological depiction as you shape the piece.
