SOUND
The song is marked by a continuous grey strip that
indicates the numbers used to play the melody with
your right hand. Each key must be pressed for some
time, depending on the distance that separates each
number on the grey strip from the next.
Basically, above the numbers you will notice a sequence
of alternating black and grey sections within the grey

Accompaniment
strip. The distance between one black section and
with left hand
another represents the unit of musical time known as
"beat", which corresponds to the movement of the
SOUND
metronome pointer from one end to the other. Every
black and grey section represents a half "beat".

The instructions (meaning squares with letters) are
