The series ‘dumb it down’ offers simplified piano accompaniments by Philip Lehmann to standard works for violin, viola, violoncello, flute, clarinet and other instruments.
The level of difficulty is strongly dependent on the tempo.
The notation clearly differentiates which quavers should be played and which are optional by indicating the repetition marks (see the notation from bar 11 in the 3rd movement in particular). This additional possibility of simplification as well as a low tempo (realistic in a teaching context) justify the rating of the piano movement as 2. The faster the music is played, the closer one gets to difficulty level 4.
The edition contains QR codes for play-alongs in various tempi with the original piano setting.
Level of difficulty 2: Must be looked at before the lesson, practised before the concert
Level of difficulty 3: Fingerings may need to be entered and practised
Level of difficulty 4: Compared to the original, the piano writing has been greatly simplified, but can still be practised by amateurs
