The Waltz by Tchaikovsky: Lesson Ideas

3. Time

Sections that are particularly difficult rhythmically are the following:

Sub-dividing in crotchets, use the rhythm pattern on F Major and play one note of the scale 6 quavers for bar 92 and the next note three minims for bars 93 and 94, etc you can do the same with the arpeggio.

Keeping the same pulse, alternate the following sections with your pupil by clapping the rhythm. When the piece is more secure, play the actual notes alternating the brackets and swapping places.
