How to practise it

  • Listen first: the site plays it while the score scrolls.
  • Wait mode: the score waits for you at every note, at your own pace.
  • Tempo challenge: play in time, with a score and a map of the bars you got right.
  • The key signature has an F♯: on string 4 it is fret 4 (little finger). Keep your thumb behind the neck, opposite your middle finger.
