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.
• Finger 1 for fret 1, finger 3 for fret 3: one finger per fret. Press just behind the fret, not on top of it.
