History
A rocking six-eight pulse supports the tune. Keep the melody audible over the repeated supporting notes, and let the phrase settle naturally. The familiar Mozart label is part of this song's attribution history, not its accepted composer credit.

How to practise it
- Let the melodic line remain audible over supporting movement.
- Support the phrase with light, even moving accompaniment.
How hard is it
Level 4, estimated
The opening places a melodic line above repeated chordal support, with ties and several pitches sounding together. Keeping that balance across 16 measures supports an intermediate estimate for this piano adaptation.
