trills
on: March 02, 2009, 01:38:03 PM
Does anyone have a technique to master fast and even trills.  I am studying Mozart Fantasia in D minor and measure 86 has these fast and even trills.  Any suggestions on exercises to enable this and what fingering would be best.  Thankyou.

Thanks go12_3 - I will go to the other forum.  I guess I was on the wrong one.  I appreciate you letting me know.

Don't play down into the keyboard, but rather subtly stroke the keys and allow your hand to rotate if it so desires.
