rondo alla turca technique

on: June 21, 2005, 01:31:39 PM

im really having a hard time mastering the coda for this piece(the ending). i've fully mastered everything else except for this part and the spreading octive part needs a touch up. i find it extremely hard to play comfortably. please help with some technical advice or maybe some specific excercises that will help. >< Dont get me wrong, im not much of a newbie, i mastered a few hard pieces than this that are a higher level than this piece

.

rondo alla turca:
its over here
page 4
https://www.mfiles.co.uk/scores/alla-turca.htm
and i need a little help with page 3 with the spreading octives please but more importantly page 4. accenting with the 5th finger, the chord trill, playing ff than all of a sudden you got to play it soft for the mp part smoothly. practically the whole thing. If you played this piece please give me some tips, i want to master this piece.

thanks masters

By rolling octaves I assume you mean measures 97-104? If so the RH technique for that is forearom rotation. Don't try to twist the wrist or play only with fingers, the motion comes mostly from the forearm. You may have to move your elbow out a bit and lowering your wrist might help.

If you want to learn rotation, make your tricep jiggle when you do it. That's how I learned.
