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 piece starts with a pickup: count the incomplete bar before coming in. Start hands separately in Wait mode, then put hands together at a slow tempo before speeding up gradually.
