Hello all!
This sonata is a working progress, and it's not as fast as it should be, but I'm more concerned about getting the notes at this point. As you will hear, I am struggling a lot with the arpeggios, and broken octaves (especially coming down since my hand can barely reach an octave), but I'm trying my best.
I do have a question: I don't use a lot of pedal, and I keep a strict tempo...should I be more flexible?
Thanks!
P.S. Sorry for the background noise...my dad was cooking...lol |

Okay here's the first movement. Live and unedited. (Except that I chopped off the repeat of the exposition just to be courteous.)

I noticed some people on this forum are playing Opus 2 no 3, so I thought I'd offer my version for fun. It's a recording from a few years ago--I played this piece for a recital in grad school. There ARE wrong notes and mistakes in this--but we're all friends here, right? ;)
Other movements are posted also--too many megabytes for one post. |
Hello Everyone,
I'm in the process of learning this sonata, and I have a few problems that I think some of you can help me with.
1. The parallel thirds in the beginning....is their anyway to get those clear? They are a pain! If I play it up to tempo, they come out semi-clear, but when I hear recordings they are crystal clear, and I always wonder if there is a certain technique, or do I just have to do certain exercizes on thirds.
2. The trills that both hands play together (for instance the beginning of the development) are never as clear as I want them to be because my left hand always messes them up (I think it's because the fourth finger is involved). Is there a certain way that I should position my left hand in order to get these trills as clear as my right, or any exercizes to strengthen the 4th finger?
3. There is a particular page, I belive it is the first page of the development (about the fourth page from the beginning)....where the right hand has broken chords. I can't get this page to save my life, and I really don't know why. It seems my hand gets stuck after every four notes, and can't get to the next group of notes fast enough, so it's always behind.
So...any suggestions?
Thanks in advance! |
