There are many wonderful harmonic changes and possibilities for expressive playing in this piece. I chose not to write in many

dynamics so the performer would not feel limited to any one idea. The general feel of the piece is one of rubato and romanticism.

Let the audience know which notes and intervals you find most interesting and the piece will be successful. The Editor
