Phrase 2 Answer rK Kr œ œ

This tune is made up of two (2) phrases, each with a "question" phrase and an "answer" phrase, as well as an ending phrase. I chose to label them this way as the two phrases are largely the same and thematically linked, making it easier to think of these question and answer phrases as slight variations on each other. The "Ending Phrase (Final Answer)" is the last phrase for both parts of this tune, so learning that phrase is learning 1/4 of the whole tune. Notice the last note in the full tune differs in length depending on the pickup note(s) that come after. As you can see, the first time each question is played, there is an anacrusis (notes before the downbeat). When you get to that phrase again in the next line, there are no pickup notes. The structure of the tune is as follows:
