Help me prepared for a piece...
on: January 30, 2006, 07:14:57 PM

... please  ;D


I want to play Rachmaninoff Op16 No3. I love this piece and from listening to / reading the music I think it is assessible with a little preparation.

Could you recommend any pieces that might be useful as preparation? Im looking through the Mendellsohn "Songs... " to begin with.

Also, anything I should be aware of before starting this piece?

Chord wise, I can manage most of them. Pity all the ruff ones are in the RH though  >:(

Cheers!
