Interference occurs when memories compete with each other for retrieval, leading to confusion and forgetting. In this case, Camilla's memory of another song may be interfering with her ability to recall the correct notes for the piece she is trying to play from memory. Both storage failure and decay refer to the fading of memories over time, but since Camilla has remembered the piece perfectly in the past, it is unlikely that these processes are behind her current forgetfulness. Ineffective encoding refers to a failure to properly store information in memory in the first place, which again seems less likely in this case given Camilla's past success with the piece.
