About this work
The Ecossaise D.158 condenses a complete dance onto a single page. A lively quaver melody rests on short chords, with repeats making the proportions immediately perceptible. Dynamic contrasts give the music relief without requiring changes of tempo.
The hands need to coordinate around upbeats and group endings. The left establishes the accents but must not hold its chords long enough to weigh down the motion. The right retains clear articulation while directing notes towards cadences instead of detaching them uniformly.
This miniature makes it possible to work on precision at a moderate tempo before seeking greater momentum. Repeat the links around each repeat sign and prepare every new dynamic before its attack. Touch close to the keys and immediate release produce the necessary energy without hardness.
