Burgmuller: Op. 100, no. 5: Innocence

Burgmüller Op. 100, no. 5 Innocence
This beautiful piece is a great way to practice smooth, legato right hand melodies. In the second section (the more innocent sounding of the two halves), the use of correct fingerings will naturally result in the desired articulation. I recorded this on a nice day with the back sliding door open. The birds chimed in, seeming to enjoy the music and I finally had to close the door so I wouldn’t be shown up by the little maestros.
