ORIGINAL TEXT: “Esta obra fue muy interpretada por el maestro ya que en ella vio
muchas posibilidades para mostrar la magia de su sonido y la refinada elegancia de su fraseo al
tocarla con su encanto libre e imaginativo. Sin embargo, para favorecer estas cualidades, no dudó en
sacrificar la coherencia armónica y formal que a los ojos del compositor, era esencial”.
