PERFORMANCE TIPS

Measure #1:

Adagio

slowly: MM= about 70 beats per min.

Sweet, or Nice, maybe Tenderly

Measure #3 & #7:

Staccato notes inside a slur.

portato2

Sometimes called a “Portato”

Sometimes called a “Mezzo Staccato”

Whatever! For this song here is what you do:

Each staccato note inside the slur should be played with a slight emphasis using either your breath or a light tonguing style like you were saying “Do”.  Make sure there is almost no break between the notes.  That’s it!

Measure #9:

Allegro non troppo, ma con brio

“Allegro” = fast  MM: 110 - 125

“non troppo” = not too much

“ma con brio” = but with fire or life
