mano sinistra
on: April 17, 2014, 05:38:21 PM
Hi ..can someone please tell me what to do in the last bar of this piece.Wind in the Willows by Bernadette Marmion.
I thought m.s. meant I have to play on the left hand but here I'm already holding a tied G on the left hand. I assume the m.s. applies to the B and G on the right hand.
Thanks in advance.

let the left hand go, no need to hold it, let the pedal work for you, then left hand takes both b and g.
