Blackthorn
Blackthorn is a piece with two distinct themes. In one hand, a higher register theme with arpeggios and in the other hand, the darker and more heroic theme in the middle register with chords. One should practice the balance of these two themes, along with making sure the "narration" of the music comes through.
