Suzuki’s Allegro and Bartok’s Children at Play are both lively, lighthearted pieces. Allegro reminds me of a jump rope song, and Children at Play just sounds like recess. They both serve as reminders not to take ourselves too seriously. We grownups can be a dour lot with our worries about interest rates and car repairs. It’s good for us to laugh a little, swing on the playground, and even jump in a mud puddle. Sometimes we just need to be playful.
