play only the first 5 notes of the bar, so it changes every time, the you will not waste so much tome repeating hte same thing over and over 4x
1) I am adding the pedal (it is my first piece using the pedal ).In my edition (Longo), there is "Ped" indication at the beginning of each bar, and release pedal indication (*) at the end of the bar. As you know, each bar start with 2 notes played with the left hand.Question: the depressing of the pedal should be done exactly at the same time the first note of the bar is played? Or just before, or just after?2) The piece is marked Moderato. What metronome tempo is desirable? 1/4 note = ?

Question:A pianist friend of mine told me the "proper" way to play this piece is the make the 1st and 5th note sound louder then the other three as this would be the classical way of playing it.Anyone agree?
