What to listen for
A held note, then a descent
The upper part enters after a rest on a long D-flat, then descends in eighth notes. Listen for that change of motion above the steadier lower chords.
How hard is it
Level 5, estimated
The short F-minor work still requires singing tone and independent movement above sustained lower sounds.
