This file was written with font; Courier New, size 12. Gavotte & Trio From the Suite in A minor by Sylvius Leopold Weiss. Tab and left hand fingering by James Jay Fingerings are the ones I use and am comfortable with. Numbers in brackets are suggested alternate fingerings; like so... [3] Feel free to use your own fingering. Time Signature; 2/2 Capital C with a line thru it. Count; 1 e & a 2 e & a ====== means let the note ring, or sustain. The first few measures have the count to get you going. The first measure is a pickup which is played at the end of the count. Count;... 1 e & a 2 e da da. The "da da" are the first 2 notes, 1-3. Continue right into the 2nd measure and keep on going. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~SECTION ONE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Allegro ma non tropo..
