How to practise it
- Count the opening rest, keep the repeated upper pairs even and introduce the lower moving line without making it louder.
How hard is it
Level 7, estimated
Repeated upper pairs combine with an independent lower eighth-note line, changing meters and expressive tempo directions. Balance and flexible timing support an advanced-entry estimate.
