Notes
The A section requires careful traing of the left hand to enable correct note durations. Rapid, large shifts and high position playing in the remaining two sections contribute to the sense of diffciulty. Take special care to identify the spots for the high-D harmonic and the high-A harmonic, in measures 45 and 47, to ensure success in the climactic C section. Once rehearsed, it is remarkably effective.
