Lullaby for a Little Princess

"This is a gentle little piece from Ivanovic built up in 3/4 on the rhythm of a dotted crochet and three quavers. It is set in E major and has plenty of sudden bar chords moving constantly around the fingerboard, so this fact takes it out of the realm of the less talented players, as it does require careful handling. The first theme is melodic and the harmonie, friendly but the rhythm is stuck firmly on the pattern I mentioned, until bar 26 when a subsidiary theme enters with a welcome change in the pattern. The harmonies develop a little here, with a couple 0 friendly but noticeable crunches in some of the chords, when the music travels into some unexpect ed areas. A return to the opening theme leads to the coda where there is a gentle winding down ove: some altered E major chords.This is more than a nice piece that many will enjoy. I found it very enjoyable indeed [...], it is a fine piece, with lots going for it."
