This is not my piano, but other than the color it's identical to my usual one. This short composition is a study piece for the RCM grade 8 exam. It was written by Danish composer Niels Gade in 1859, as part of his five-part work Children's Christmas.

I don't think the piece is supposed to slow down in the middle part, but it felt natural to play it this way.
