on: November 24, 2012, 07:24:02 PM
Is there any good exercise or etude which prepare you to chopin etude op.10 No.5. I play it about 3 months, but I can't play it in the full tempo. (the maximum speed I can play is 80).  In sheets, there is wrote tempo 116, but I think that it is more than it is normaly played. What is the real speed?
Scarlatti - sonata K32, K99, K213, K141
Schubert - Sonata in A minor, D.784, no. 14
Chopin - Etude 10/1, 10/9, 25/12
