    Notes and Legend
    ----------------
    "This little duet for teacher and pupil introduces the dotted eighth note with the sixteenth note following. The time and rhythm should be carefully observed. In the first two measures the pupil has the melody while the teacher plays the accompaniment. In the third and fourth measures the pupil plays the accompaniment to the melody played by the teacher; therefore the measures in which the pupil plays the accompaniment are played softer than those where the melody is played, so that the melody is not covered up. This is an interesting style of duet, where the melody alternates between the two players."
    - Vahdah Olcott Bickford

    The tempo of the Saitenspuren video and the MIDI is 60 bpm (quarter notes).
