Beethoven Op.78 Mvmt 1
on: June 23, 2011, 03:26:37 AM


I was in the mood to post some stuff today  8)

I started this about 2 weeks ago; so this is definitely a work in progress (kind of obvious from the parts where my eyes are glued to the paper haha).  I'm just working out some kinks now, and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for the left hand in the last few bars (the descending pattern with the chromatic bits leading to the final chord).  My hand kind of cramps a bit there (except really slowly).

I might post the Debussy Chromatic Etude sometime soon (at a slow-ish tempo) with some more fingering issues that I hope people might have suggestions for!
Interested in discussing:

-Prokofiev Toccata
-Scriabin Sonata 2
