How to practise it
- Practise the encoded lines separately, then combine them while preserving their different rhythms.
- Keep the sustained or entering voice audible without making its supporting material heavy.
How hard is it
The first measures place upper eighth-note figures over separated lower notes; 27 measures and modest chord density suggest an early-intermediate study, with the accordion-specific fingering and piano suitability still explicitly qualified.
