For women who play Schumann Romance Op. 28, No. 2

on: November 23, 2011, 11:33:05 PM

I am new to this forum and learning this lovely piece, and I cannot reach the diminished chord in the left hand ten bars from the end (outer notes b# and d#). How do you play this chord? I don't feel I can roll or break it because I would have to pedal to observe the tie, and I don't think I can pedal through the chromatic motive in the right hand. I can't tell from the recordings I have listened to how other women who can't reach the whole chord handle this, except it sounded like one person just left off the top d#. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
