Thomé's 'Andalouse' is a charming salon piece that captures the spirit of Andalusia with its graceful melody and lilting waltz rhythm. It's known for its elegant and often sentimental character.
Pay attention to the precise articulation of the melodic line and the subtle use of rubato to enhance the waltz feel.
Andalouse (Op.117) is rated Henle level 4 of 9 — intermediate repertoire, roughly ABRSM grades 5–6. In the RCM system it corresponds to about level 5.
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 Andalouse (Op.117) lasts about 3 minutes.
