About This Song
About "18 Pieces, Op. 72 : Tchaikovsky: 18 Pieces, Op. 72: No. 15, Un poco di Chopin" by Bruce Liu
Tchaikovsky tips his hat to Chopin in this miniature, a homage wrapped in wistful melancholy. Liu teases out the mazurka-like lilt, the melodyβs nostalgia held in check by a gentle, almost hesitant pulse. Calm and unease entwined in a single, fleeting phrase.
