| What is the best fingering in LH in variation 2, first bar and similar places. I have tried 51212121 and also 51321231. I am not yet up to speed and maybe what seems best at low speed is not the best at high speed? |

| my question is simply, 'how one earth is the left hand played evenly and without tension??' I've heard all the correct stuff on technique but it doesn't seem to work. It beats me how you can handle a stream of fast notes like this without seizing up in the forearm. surely there's no getting away from the fact your fingers have to work damn hard! do you rest your left arm with full weight on the keys? do you use a light finger staccato action? don't you have to keep the left hand volume down for a nice texture? if you let the arm 'rest' too much surely the sound would drown out the right? |

Hi there !
I'm beginning to work on K.265 and would like to know if someone could tell me how to interpret the trills in Var. XII. They are all in the right hand. The end to each trill is written out (two thirty-second notes). How many notes for the body of the trill and do you start on the printed note or on the note above ?
Any help gratefully received !
Thanks in advance

Hello!
This is my first post here, but I have been reading the forum for a long time. Here is my background: I have played for about 6 months, essentially Bach (Ann Magdalena, little preludes, etc), some Burgmuller and some of Schuman's Album for the young.
I heard that Ah, vous dirai-je maman is 1. a technically useful piece ; 2. that variations are ordered in progressive order of difficulty.
So my question is: would these be too hard for me to tackle. I thought it would be useful to learn one variation each week, which would make me progress little by little. Does this sound like a good plan? I know the first variation is supposed to be easy, but how about the rest? And is it true that they are in progressive order of difficulty?
Thank you!
