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.
  • Plant your fingers on their strings and keep the triplets perfectly even; bring out the top note when it carries the melody. Work in four-bar sections before playing it through.
