the first one i'm not super sure what the problem  /question is, but while you're learning it i'd play the mixed triplet/quartet rhythm in time just so you know where the beat is, once you have it down, then you can add the interprettive stretch and compression of those repeated chords.
also, take a 2nd look at your score, it specifically lays out for you to use the sostenuto (2nd/middle) pedal for those low octaves, they are to ring through the passage and you have to change pedals (sustain) for the chord changes without losing that base note. it isn't restruck, just once like  a church or clock tower bell, DONG.............chord....chord...chord....
the 2nd one, i addressed here
https://www.pianostreet.com/smf/index.php?topic=44846.0

the fingering i laid out works well and will (if practiced early one and a lot) will smooth out the line/swell of the apregios especially since it happends at such a blisteringly fast tempo when up to speed, its simply going to be very hard for most pianists to use percy's fingerings here without excessive hand movements which will interrupt the fluidity of the runs, these need to feel and sound like one long continuous gesture not several sets of 4 notes. i'm not sure how else to lay out what worked for me and was suggested to me at a masterclass, i hope you can figure out what i'm trying to say

i have not seen ever the 2nd score you produced, my hunch is that it is from the arrangement of the score for solo piano, which i have not studied (i played the standard one for piano i and piano ii and with an ensemble).

good luck with it and remember with this work slow practice makes fast progress, do not go up in tempo before the section is ready, and never  lose sight of your tone quality and phrasing, SOOOOO importnat with this piece.


best of luck man, you really seem to like this work and i think you can do it if you make the right technical decisions early on. i hope that helps.

yeah that sounds like a good idea, it can get very busy at times so it helps to have a trained ear with score in hand to weigh in on what's going on and how to fix it. good luck man !!
