Tedesca, easy version

Melody and left-hand roots

The melody as Haydn wrote it, with the left hand playing only the root of the harmony at the start of each bar. It leaves out 64 of the piece's 203 notes and adds none, so it is still the real piece: level 2 of 7, where the piece as written is level 3.

Level: 2 of 7
