Performance Notes IMPORTANT

---

To be played as smoothly/naturally as possible,
every chord/note held until the next, especially melody,
until the end.

Sos. = Sostenuto Pedal
Sos.{notes} = notes to use sostenuto pedal
Sos~ = let go of sostenuto pedal

Note that some notes do not require the pedal when indicated,
and may be kept pressed instead. This is up to the performer.

# Table of Dynamics

(optional, up to interpretation)

P = soft
PP = very soft
PPP = triple soft
PPPP = quadruple soft
F = loud
FF = very loud

cresc. - gradually increase strength/velocity
dim. - gradually decrease strength/velocity

This is experimental,
so cresc./dim. may not always be possible,
especially without an analog keyboard or swell pedal.
