At the time of the danceHeinrich Lichner

[Recommended for piano recitals] In the Dance Lesson ♪ Lichner / In der Tanzstunde, Lichner

pianoclassics.net

Heinrich Lichner, a German composer who left many short pieces ideal for learning the piano.

Among his works, one of the most beloved is “At the Dance Hour,” whose light, waltz-like rhythm feels delightful.

The key points are to play the melody lightly and the triplet figures—like ornaments—brilliantly, but above all, to keep a precise three-beat pulse! Imagine taking steps to the count of “1, 2, 3” as you play, and keep the rhythm accurate.

Practicing with a metronome is also recommended!

Album for the Young, Op. 68: No. 1 “Melody”Robert Schumann

Schumann: Album for the Young, Op. 68-1 Melody Pf. Rintaro Akamatsu

s9.imslp.org

The first piece, “Melody,” from Robert Schumann’s Album for the Young, Op.

68—by a composer who represents the German Romantic movement—is a work noted for its simple, lyrical atmosphere.

At only 20 measures long and with frequent repetitions, it is often performed as a practice piece or recital piece by beginning pianists.

Although the notes are very simple, the left-hand accompaniment moves continuously in eighth notes, so care should be taken with the volume balance against the right-hand melody.

Play with attention to ensure the melody is not overshadowed by the accompaniment.

Minuet in G majorLudwig van Beethoven

L. V. Beethoven / Minuet in G major

pianoclassics.net

When you hear “Minuet in G major,” many may think of Christian Petzold’s piece long attributed to Johann Sebastian Bach.

However, Beethoven’s Minuet is equally famous as a staple practice piece at the beginner piano level.

While both the notes and structure are very simple, playing the theme’s repeated thirds legato is by no means easy.

Pay close attention to your finger shape and wrist movement, and aim to keep the sound connected without breaks.

Harpsichord Pieces, Book I, Suite No. 3, No. 1: “The Cuckoo”Louis-Claude Daquin

Cuckoo (Daquin) Le Coucou (Daquin)

pianoclassics.net

Louis-Claude Daquin was a French composer who lived in the same era as Johann Sebastian Bach.

Among his works for organ and harpsichord, the most famous is The Cuckoo, the first piece of Suite No.

3 from Harpsichord Pieces, Book I.

Practicing the quick sixteenth-note passages in the right hand is important, but it’s also key to play the left-hand interjections accurately and expressively.

As you practice, focus on the motion from the off-beat eighth note on the “and” of beat two to the quarter note on beat one, which can evoke the call of the cuckoo.
