Part B has some tricky fingering. Good news is Part B is only played once in Gavotte 2. Part A is played 5 times and Part C is played 2 times. The order is AA-BA-CA-CA. Besides Part B’s fingering, practice on the alternating fingering. After that you can go learn gavotte 1 which gives good practice to your pull offs or if you know both Gavottes already, even better! Now you can play the entire Gavotte together. (Gavotte I – Gavotte II – Gavotte I)
