My Performance
Things I Found Difficult
Although there aren’t many notes to learn, I did not find it easy to play the RH accompaniment quietly and evenly.
Structure
A – B – A – Coda
Sections
Section | Bars | Comments |
A | 1-8 | |
B | 9-12 | Bar 12 — This is the transition from the B section back to A. The right hand departs from the repetitive pattern established in mm 1-11. |
Coda | 13-15 | Again, the right hand departs from the pattern. Note that the melody moves from the left to right hand at beat 3 of mm 14. Bring out the top note in the right hand at this point. |
