    The G pickup leads to a dotted E and a small D-sharp turn. Hear the long-short shape float over the lower chords rather than making every note equally heavy.

How hard is it

Level 5, estimated

Dotted motion, accidentals and quieter accompaniment need coordinated shaping despite the short length.
