The piece premiered in Oslo, Norway, in the same year. It is a part of a set of six piano pieces, collectively known as 'Six Piano Pieces, Op. 10'. 'Silver, Op. 10/2' is a single-movement piece that lasts for approximately three minutes. The piece is characterized by its delicate and ethereal quality, which is achieved through the use of a slow tempo, soft dynamics, and a lyrical melody. The piece is written in the key of E-flat major and is in 3/4 time signature. The piece begins with a simple and gentle melody played in the right hand, accompanied by a soft and flowing arpeggio in the left hand. The melody is then repeated with slight variations, and the left-hand accompaniment becomes more complex. The middle section of the piece features a more dramatic and intense melody, played in the right hand, while the left hand provides a rhythmic accompaniment. The piece then returns to the opening melody, which is played with even more delicacy and tenderness than before. Overall, 'Silver, Op. 10/2' is a beautiful and evocative piano piece that showcases Lammers' skill in creating music that is both expressive and technically challenging. The piece is often performed by pianists today and remains a beloved work in the piano repertoire.More....
