The most crucial aspect in performing this piece is whether it is played appassionato. Appassionato means passionately and intensely. Therefore, playing this piece blandly or peacefully would ruin the mood of the piece itself. The opening indication states "Allegro appassionato" and begins con fuoco. Not only in the forte sections, but also in the p and pp passages, a high level of tension must be conveyed. This is not a piece where one should find repose in the p or pp sections.

For such an appassionato expression, a somewhat rough and percussive sound quality may sometimes be necessary. For instance, the repeated notes in the left hand, starting from measure 11, should intensify in tension as they progress, and upon reaching the forte at measure 21, where the hands are far apart, the performers must exert extreme pressure on the listeners.

Let us consider what kind of performance is required to convey a tense atmosphere and a sense of oppression to the listeners.
