Brahms’ Capriccio, Op. 116 no. 3

This map was constructed by an adult pianist to improve memory security for a performance. It shows the direction of the principal thematic lines, and the frequent 7th chords are represented by the symbol of a hand with fingers extended. Small sections are labeled (1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, etc.)
