Melancolie by Francis Poulenc score

on: June 19, 2022, 10:19:08 AM

I have been looking for this for a while, thought I would share the score of "Melancolie" by Francis Poulenc. Very beautiful piece. Also, if someone could share their views on this piece in terms of difficulty, I would appreciate

Hi,
Very beautiful piece of music, indeed.
I am quite familiar with the difficulties of this piece as I played it some time ago and just thinking to visit it again recently.

I post my performance of it:

Dynamics, sense of the phrases, different plans of music voices, contrasts, touch, memory are the difficulties

It may be a bit more difficult to play that what you can imagine listening to it
