My word!
Stretching=doing it wrong.
Not stretching=doing it wrong.
Personally, I agree.
Nobody ever gets this one quite right 100% in live performance. Ashkenazy came pretty close once or twice after he had worked on it for about 14 years.
I am very eager to try out apollon1717's fingering for the A major bar. I've learn many ways of doing this bar, but not this one. It seems perhaps more plausible to me than the 2 hands idea.
The many two-hands possibilities seem 'workable' in a cheeky sense but are always a bit musically far-fetched sounding in reality, in my opinion.
apollon, I am very interested in hearing some of your op. 25!
And also your 10/1 if/when it's complete.
How do you do the bar C-Eb-A-Eb/following bar without stretching? Do you have a special fingering for that as well?
Thank you kindly for sharing your proprietory trade secrets.
My own personal experience with the 24 is that every single one is the hardest one.
