About "Lieder ohne Worte VIII, Op. 102 : Mendelssohn: Lieder ohne Worte VIII, Op. 102: I. Andante un poco agitato, MWV U162" by Daniel Barenboim

Op. 102 opens with an Andante un poco agitato, a title that captures its central paradox: a walk that cannot quite settle. Barenboim's touch is velvet over a quiver, the melody advancing with a gentle, unresolved urgency. It's the sound of a mind pacing a quiet room.
