R = right hand, L = left hand. In the sticking text, lowercase letters indicate grace notes. The text shows one playback cycle.
BPM and metronome beats count dotted quarter notes. One playback cycle is 2 dotted-quarter beats (3 quarter notes in the score).
Synthesized tones illustrate sticking and dynamics: a higher tone for the right hand and a lower tone for the left. The metronome can be switched off. This is not a performance recording.
Practice focus
Start slowly and aim for even volume and spacing. Where grace notes appear, distinguish them from the main strokes.
