Also known as Bagatelle No. 25 in A minor, WoO 59. I first learned this piece when I was 10 year old. Like Clementi's Sonatina in C major (Op. 36, No. 3), this is a grade 7 piece for the RCM (Royal Conservatory of Music) exams in Canada.

I recorded this one using the Kawai upright at my parents' house, which was my primary practice instrument as a child. Compared to the electric piano at my own place, this instrument has a much fuller, richer sound. Its sturdiness also means that it doesn't shake and create noise (on the minus side, you can't use it with headphones).

As usual, the camera is a Canon T3i with standard 18-55mm lens.
