Intermezzo

I always wonder whether words could ever match the tenderness evoked by this piece: Brahms' Intermezzo Op. 118 No. 2 in A Major interpreted by Lugansky. Along with Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, I always play this on the piano at home. Simple yet not overly-passionate, languid and melancholic but not dolorous. Just the right dash of sentimentality.
