Performance: Chopin etude 25/2, too easy or are we doing something wrong? by gyzzzmo
First, good afternoon everybody! About the etude, every time i play it i have something like, `this etude is far too simple, are we supposed to play it differently?' Most editions say it's in 2/4, but has anybody tried playing it in 4/4? I tried playing it like this, thus giving every first note of the RIGHT hand triol an accent. Its splitting my brains up, but at least i have the idea that this way the etude is actually hard :D Any opinions? Gyzzzmo
Audition Room: Chopin Etude opus25 no2 and Beethovens Appassionata sonata 3rd MVT only. by zheer
Ok i recorded this recently, the etude is only a minute long so it is grouped together with the Appassionata, needs some more time but am happy with it at the moment, any comments are welcome. :)
Student's Corner: Chopin Etude Opus 25 No 2 by kelly_kelly
Hi! I like this piece and want to play it, but I am not sure about the pedalling. Some recordings have a light pedal all through the piece, while others adhere strictly to the pedal markings. Also, what is the recommended tempo for this piece? Thanks in advance!

Student's Corner: Chopin Op. 25, no. 2 by Chopinisque
After a quick search, I could barely find any information on this song here. I'm thinking of starting this piece, being one of the easiest etudes. It is still quite a ways from my level. So, I'd thought I'd ask... 1. Is this piece as easy as it looks? 2. What other difficulties does it have in store other than the contrasting timing in the RH thirds and LH thirds? 3. Are there any hard parts or points of interest to look out for? 4. In the Henle Urtext, the fingering is 2, 131 243 131 245, etc. But in the version at music-scores.com, it is (first note's fingering omitted) 132 132 132 145, etc. In sheet music archive's version, it's 2 (tie here) and then the rest conforms with the Urtext. Which was Chopin's original... 5. Is there any interesting trivia or history related to the piece? Thanks.
