Also known as W.A. Mozart - Minuet in G K. 15c.

History

The upper line rises through a broken chord and turns around its high note. A sparse lower opening leaves plenty of room to shape that small dance phrase.

How to practise it

  1. Connect the opening upper eighth notes and keep the lower quarter-note pulse quieter than the turning melody.

How hard is it

Level 3, estimated

Upper broken-chord eighths and lower quarters in3/4 require early two-hand balance and register preparation, without the density of the later concert repertoire.
