About "Schumann: Carnaval, Op. 9: No. 7, Coquette" by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli
Coquette is a flirtatious miniature, Michelangeli's touch light as a fan flicked open. The music teases with hesitation and quick retreats, a dance of glances across a crowded room. Beneath the charm, a faint unease: the coquette's smile never quite reaches the eyes.
