Teaching notes:
Be careful to observe the rest in bar 6, releasing the LH chord BEFORE applying the pedal.
Give the last note of bar 7 its full length and do not fall into the trap of following the rhythmic pattern  of the opening phrases with just a one beat up beat to the phrase.
Make sure you TIE the C at the end of bar 12 into bar 13 as you change the other notes around it, (actually NOT observed in this performance).
Extra control is needed at the end to make the last bar as soft as possible, dim a niente means fade to nothing.
