Left Hand
- Uses some half position for A#5
- Chromatic fingering – C5 to C#5, F#5 to E#5
- Can be played in 1st position until the end.
- 4 note chord – can be played with with fingered fifth and fingered sixth, in third position, or the chord can be rolled from 2 open strings to fingered sixth in 3rd position.
- *In my opinion 2nd position would work well for this opening melody for the sake of timber. And prevents long string sustained notes on open strings or 4th fingers.
Bowing
- Groups of 6 eighth notes slurred.
- 4 beats of free tremelo
- 1 quadruple stop
Rhythm
- 3 measures where meter changes each measure from 3/4 to 4/4 to 2/4; For a sustained 6 beat note.
- Meter changes from 3/4 to 4/4 for last 6 measures
Recording
*This recording leaves out 5 measures of the ending, and changes 1 measure from the printed arrangement.
