About this piece
Kirchner's Opus 62 is a great set of short pieces (called miniatures) for early to late intermediate pianists.
In miniature number 9, the melody is divided between left and right hands, emphasizing lyricism and passion. It's a perfect piece for working on phrasing and developing dynamics.
Is this your next piece?
It might be a good next step if you're an intermediate pianist working on your technique.
