Broken (II) serves as a companion piece to the first, exploring similar harmonic ground with slight variations in development. Its distinctive feature is the introspective, almost improvisational quality.
The performer must pay close attention to the subtle use of the damper pedal to sustain atmosphere without muddying the harmonic shifts.
Comparable difficulty and character — good candidates for what to learn next.

You should be comfortable at Henle level 3 — meaning you can already play level 2–3 pieces cleanly. Learning it one level early is possible as a stretch piece, but more than that usually leads to months of frustration.
