Carl CZERNY (1791-1857)

ustrian composer Carl Czerny is most remembered for his abundant number of studies. As: The most tricky thing to perfect in this short piece is the ability to master all the different articulations. You will notice that the hands usually ‘act’ separately: for example, at the start, notice how the LH plays four bars of legato, while the RH plays one bar legato, one bar staccato and so on. When playing the repeated notes, try to make a slight emphasis on the first one (as it’s the first beat of the bar). Implementing the dynamics will help add colour and variety. Pedalling is not required.
