Which is easier to mess up in a performance?

on: August 28, 2006, 05:52:26 PM

Hello, I am planning to play one of these in a performance next year. Does anybody have some experience in playing them in public? Lessons learned? One that is easier to control?

Thanks.

#24 is very tricky with hitting all the right notes because of its gymnastics. Octaves are safer. I have no experience/knowledge with op. 10 No. 8
