About this Piece
Phrase: Note the slur markings in the right hand that indicate the length of each musical phrase throughout the work. They are often different lengths (one measure, two measures, etc.) Can you find them all? (Be careful not to confuse slur markings with tie markings!)
Triplet / Rhythmic Duration: This piece is full of metrical borrowing, including triplets (3 in a beat), sextuplets (6 notes in a beat), and even a septuplet (7 notes in a beat)! Listen for them in the Notable Passages, below.
