I'm at a loss as to the coordination between the LH and RH for this piece. For example, take a look at measure 3. The RH has 4 sets of notes that are connected, and the LH has four sets of notes as well. Does this mean that the first set of the LH and RH should start and finish at the same time, and then the 2nd set commences, and etc...or what?

Else the right hand has 20 16th notes, and the left hand has 22 16ths, so nothing would rly match up or alternate nicely. T Forgive my ignorance :\ and lame terminology. Any help?
