This fun canon in 6/8 time introduces the use of Da Capo al Fine. The articulation markings change throughout the piece. Halfway through, slurred eighth notes with accents turn into two-note slurs and a staccato note. This, along with hand position changes, adds a lot of variety. Practicing the hands alone will improve the coordination between hands.
