Chopin - Etude in A-flat from Nouvelle Etudes. It's number may differ depending on the edition.
I am supposed to play something less than 100 years old?! Actually thanks both of you, not bad, but then there's the question of finding the sheets. Just spent too much money on score shopping yesterday...
The Scriabin Prelude I'm working on right now has a lot of 3vs2. And it's older than 100 years too
The true secret to doing these is to learn to play each "line" of the rhythm independently, though at the same time.
Counting or wordplay methods will work for 2/3 and 3/4 polyrhythms, but will ultimately fail you.
So do you think we are all capable of that? I am doubtful...
I wonder how often does one actually encounter more complicated polyrhythms in pre 1900 classical music? Those should serve one quite a long time...?
AJS piano,Thank you so much for the etude with 2 against 3. It looks perfect for what I am looking for. I will print it out and bring it to my lesson tomorrow.
Thanks for the tips.Judy
