Player's guide
This is a tune that you can play as fast or as slow as you
like, repeat over and over and conpose your own variations.
It's a good tune to help you practice playing down the scale wwith
four fingers and a single cross-over, and also to expand the spread
of your hand to cover one note short of an octave with the second
part of the tune. Note how the score shows the first beat of the bar
where the accent comes on the second note of the
chimes.
Right hand
Bars 1 to 4 - Two C''-to-C' eight note down
scales as two fours played by (1) to (4) followed by a (1) over (4)
crossover into the second four notes.
Bars 5 and 6 - Each finger plays the next-but-one string to the previous one, from (1) to (4) so you spread out your hand, first C''-A''-F'-D', then B''-G'-E'-C', then going back to A'' with the thumb which leads in the final phrase.
Bars 7 and 8 - Note that (2) on F' is followed by (4) - not (3) on D' so that (3) is free to play G' in the return via B'' with (2) to the concluding C'' with the thumb.
