Chopin Op. 25 No. 10 Double Sharp Help
on: August 28, 2009, 01:59:18 PM
So in the 3rd trplet in the first bar it says to play and F double sharp (octave) now is this an F double sharp (G natural) or an F sharp double sharp (G sharp)?

You would play F double sharp (G). There's no such thing as F sharp double sharp.

If you look at the music, it makes sense that you play F double sharp (marked with finger 5) because the following note is a G# (from the previous triplet) and is marked to be played with the 4th finger.
