Another iteration of Mishchenkov's Alegrias, emphasizing high-energy motion and keyboard brilliance. The composition relies on motivic repetition and shifting textures for effect.
Maintain consistent tempo and rhythmic drive through the more technical arpeggiated sections.
Comparable difficulty and character — good candidates for what to learn next.
Alegrias is rated Henle level 4 of 9 — intermediate repertoire, roughly ABRSM grades 5–6. In the RCM system it corresponds to about level 6.
You should be comfortable at Henle level 4 — meaning you can already play level 3–4 pieces cleanly. Learning it one level early is possible as a stretch piece, but more than that usually leads to months of frustration.
A typical performance of Alegrias lasts about 4 minutes.
