    I agree, this is a very difficult etude to play at that tempo, you seem to have the correct mental pattern in approaching this etude, however the problem is i can hear what you are thinking.All the best.

lol i know what you mean. and no, that would be cheating, and almost as bad as leaving out the RH chords.

Chromatickler,

Nice work, sounds like you have this one pretty much sorted.

When I first heard this etude I thought it sounded pretty easy compared to some of the others... then I looked at the music and realised you have to do that dodgy finger crossing with the RH! To be honest though, you make it look pretty easy.

this very uneven, but he does make it look very easy, i wonder if he could play it better at a slower speed.
