Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I assume you are referring to the second line of the music where a third staff is added!. The top staff is the melody line!. It is the musical notation for the singer!. Generally, the piano plays only the bottom two lines, but if the vocalist needs their notes, the pianist can play both upper lines!. Hope this is understandable!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

The rhythmic patterns in the 16th notes each count as one beat!. The two lines really can't be played with the right hand realistically!. You'll have to use both hands!. Just keep practicing!. You'll get the hand of it soon enough!. Good luck with your music making!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Your example is vocal music!. The top line is what the vocalist sings, the bottom two lines are what you play!. The very bottom is left hand, the middle is right hand!. ?Www@QuestionHome@Com
