The first exercise is the folk song "Are You Sleeping?". It contains a series of eighth notes that will
undoubtedly be the most difficult section of the piece. You should practice this part separately
until you can play it smoothly, then try the whole piece.
This melody is known as a "round" or "canon". Those terms mean that the melody harmonizes
with itself when two players start at different times. In this particular melody the second player
should start at the beginning when the first player reaches the third measure.
Also, a key signature is used in this piece. The sharp symbol on the top line indicates that any
notes of F should be changed to F# for this piece. Ironically there is no letter F in this melody.
