Edmond Missa was a prolific French composer whose work often displays the elegance of the Belle Époque. This piece provides a clear example of the French style of piano miniature, prioritizing warmth and melodic flow.
Pay close attention to finger independence to ensure the accompaniment does not mask the melody.
