Ave Maria, easy version

Melody and a simpler left hand

The melody as Schubert wrote it, with each left-hand chord cut to its top and bottom notes. It leaves out 98 of the piece's 601 notes and adds none, so it is still the real piece: level 3 of 7, where the piece as written is level 4.

Level: 3 of 7
As written: Level 4
Notes: 503 of 601
