This very brief, less than a five-minute miniature, could be a demonstration lesson on the development of piano texture from Chopin to Debussy for intelligent and obnoxious little ones, but whether it can put them to sleep ... not necessarily. Perhaps in the final Andante sostenuto where the dissonance of the long sounding-out, final chords neutralizes the command to play them pianissimo. The composer replaced the bitter taste of harmonic abstraction, usually obtained by means of cubist twists allowing merciless changes of tonality, moods, atmosphere, with the softness of chromatic fioritura, arabesque elasticity of line - hence the feeling of impressionism of the music that does not fit the image of the artist. But the provocative change of tone and no lack here of sharp, swinging figures softened somewhat by the legato cantabile, or the threatening-sounding trills in the second octave could stir a child, even most weary from fun. [M. Gąsiorowska, Kisielewski, PWM 2011]
