What to listen for
Four lines, one piano
The upper and lower lines begin with matching short gestures while inner notes last longer. Hear the sustained harmony beneath the moving lines rather than playing every voice with the same weight.
How hard is it
The 116-measure source separates four simultaneous keyboard voices into four single-staff parts. Independent sustained and moving lines, returns and changing key declarations support an upper-intermediate estimate; import hand assignment is not certified.
