Douce Plaint (Tender Grieving) by Johann Friedrich Burgmüller is designed to develop expressive, lyrical playing along with technical precision.

• The right hand must produce a singing, “tender” melody that is carefully balanced against the quieter left hand.
• The left hand requires rapid, accurate movement between pentascale positions and extended arpeggio shapes. Analyze the chords and practice the basic shifts before learning the piece.
• There is a wide variety of articulations that must be carefully observed.
