How to practise it in the visualizer

  • Slow it down first: start at 71 BPM, about 60% of the original 119, and speed up as the notes become familiar.
  • Solo the “Ensemble & choir” track to hear one part at a time, then bring the others back in.
  • Up to 13 notes sound together here: pause on the fullest chords and find their keys before playing on.
  • The notes spread over 5.2 octaves, from A0 to B5: keep an eye on both ends of the keyboard.
  • Each falling bar lands on the key to press; its length is how long to hold the note.
