Mélodie antique française - Album for the Young

This charming Old French Song, Op. 39, No. 16 is the sixteenth of 24 pieces in Tchaikovsky's Album for the Young.

Tchaikovsky's Old French Song is written in the key of G minor.

This short Old French Song by Tchaikovsky features an A-A-B-A musical form :

  2. Section B (measures 17 to 24) : this central section is a little restless, especially in the left hand accompaniment

  3. Section A (measures 25 to 32) : the first section returns with its quiet character
Please note that in this score, the slurs are faithful to Tchaikovsky's autograph manuscript.
