Quick question re Ravel Sonatine
on: February 06, 2011, 11:33:32 PM
Ravel Sonatine, Mvt 2, measure 33.  My copy is of poor quality and I can't read it--what is the very first note of the measure for the right hand (the grace note before the A flat)?  Thanks in advance.

I looked it up and it looks like an Eb, F, Ab grace note, but that top note (Ab) may be wrong. Try listening to a recording and see what notes they are?
Beethoven Sonata Op. 13 'Pathetique'
Beethoven Sonata Op. 31 No. 2 'Tempest'
Beethoven Sonata Op. 90
Liszt Hungarian Rhapsody No. 17
Bach Italian Concerto

I have a good, clean copy and starting from the bottom up the graces notes are Eb, F, Ab.

Hope this helps.

thanks!  I tried figuring it out by listening to recordings, but it's too fast and too many notes for my abilities in that regard.
