What to listen for
The lower line starts the dance
The first encoded measure gives the lower staff active paired notes while the upper staff rests. The upper line joins in the next measure. Hear the entries sharing the compound dance pulse.
How hard is it
The 20-measure piano setting begins with lower chord pairs before the upper entry, then combines separate voices in twelve-eight with a repeat. Coordination within the compound pulse supports an intermediate estimate; short length alone does not make it elementary.
