Print the sheet for the piano stand, or load the MIDI into any app and practise at your own tempo.

- 2Set the speed down and turn CLICK on. Press each key exactly when the note reaches the line.
- 3Loop the bar that keeps breaking until it feels easy, then add the left hand and take the speed back up.
