How to practise it
- Release and repeat with a light touch, grouping repetitions by phrase.
- Keep the main line audible while supporting activity stays quieter.
How hard is it
Level 7, estimated
Repeated upper notes in measures2and3 sit over chordal support. The110-measure source contains1332 encoded notes and extensive later tempo automation, so even touch and balance are useful priorities.
