Perform as if gently conversing, fully savoring the movement and expression of the sound. The composer's indicated metronome tempo is quarter note = 104-120. While listening to the sustain of the notes, choose a tempo that allows you to capture the nuances of the movement and harmonic colors. Personally, I believe a slightly slower tempo leads to a more profound and expressive performance. Enjoy the difference between measures 2 and 6. Although the melody is the same, measure 6 features a tenuto-staccato marking, and the left hand also begins to move. This seems to invite the expansive melody of the subsequent measure 7. In measure 7, the left-hand bass line progresses stepwise, accompanying the melody; therefore, play it legato. From measure 9, the left hand takes on the melody, creating a three-voice texture. While it is crucial to make the left hand sing expressively and pay attention to balance, the whole notes in the inner voice of the right hand tend to be shortened, so listen carefully and sustain them. The climax at measure 15 should be played with ample sound from both hands, and the peak note 'D' of the motif played by the left hand on the fourth beat should be performed with care, as if marked with a tenuto. Measure 19, 'A-D-D-D,' is sung with even greater introspection, following 'A-C-C-C' in the preceding measure 18. The fermata on 'D' is followed by a diminuendo hairpin leading to pp, and then a colon; feel and savor the meaning of each of these markings. In the final three measures of the Coda, listen to the sustained notes to ensure the left-hand inner voice does not shorten, and play the final left-hand motif carefully as a concluding statement.
