Carl Maria von Weber was born
Beginning of the composer’s lifetime.
About this piece
Weber's Opus 13 is a collection of songs for voice and piano, and this piece is a piano arrangement of one of its most beautiful tunes.
This piece will help beginners improve the balance between the hands. The left-hand needs a soft and even sound, while the right-hand needs to create a long, arc-shape sound for each of the 4 phrases.
Is this your next piece?
It might be a good fit if you're a beginner who likes inspiring, relaxing and dreamy pieces.
