Notes and Legend
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the Norbert Neunzling reference video some of the arpeggios are missing,
the pair of notes on the 3rd beat is not played, the melody is slightly different at the end, and there is no repeat.

The 'Short Melodies' do not have key signatures, but this sound like G major.

measures 4,12 - in the sheet the lower 2 notes on the 2nd beat are half notes

left hand fingering below the tab -
1 - index finger (forefinger)
2 - middle finger
3 - ring finger
4 - little finger (pinky)

=== - length of note, note held, duration
arp. - ripple upwards from the lowest note to the highest note
bpm - beats per minute
mf - mezzoforte - moderately loud, medium loud
mp - mezzopiano - moderately soft, medium soft
rit. - ritenuto - slowing down, suddenly slower
