Considering the intricate note values written in this aria, it is evident that this is not a piece to be played at a fast tempo. Please choose a slow tempo where the small note values, such as 32nd notes, can be sung naturally and without strain.

The piece modulates to G minor, F major, B-flat major, and C minor. Please vary the color and dynamics in each section.

Improvisation is essential for this aria. The left hand should primarily be regarded as a walking bass, and the right hand as the melodic line. The right hand should be played freely and improvisationally, not with a strict metronomic timing, and the left hand should give the impression of adjusting to it.

While the mood of the piece itself is not optimistic, it also differs from an expression of deep sorrow. The desired feeling is that of singing a beautiful song as if speaking to someone. For example, from measure 15, the same passage, C-B-A-G-G, is repeated three times in the right hand. Please ensure that the expression and dynamics vary each of the three times, taking care that the dynamics never become flat.
