Transcendental etude no 10
on: November 06, 2015, 03:25:19 AM
About this etude, the hardest part for me are the tenth chords.  My hand are not big enough to reach them.  For the most part i can roll them but when i reach m.63 (i may be wrong but around there)  The left hand tenths i do not know what to do.  i've experimented with using the right hand to take the one  top note, omitting that top not and playing the base + the remaining 2 in the triplet, and rolling.  Any ideas?

It looks like using your right hand to play the top note would be the easiest way to play that part given that you cannot play it with one hand.

Although visitor probably knew you were talking about Liszt and wanted to make a point, it is always good to remember the lesser known composers, even if just to satisfy members like visitor!!

I'm pretty sure the OP knows about the Lyapunov Etude. However, she/he is not inefficient enough to play them at the learning stage.

Lyapunov Etudes are pretty much useless for competitions. Not that they are bad works (they are actually very pretty and pleasing to my ear), but they are not taken as seriously by the real-deal-people as the Chopin, Lsizt, or Rachmaninoff Etudes.

Never mind,
Well you're not exactly the most helpful person on this forum  ;D




But IMHO I agree about the Kosenko.

who told you that? or is that just your "instinctive feeling" .-. I'm sure if I played a Lyapunov etude well (e.g. "The Storm") the judges would still find it very respectable...

Bruh I meant specific competitions.

Many competitions require thus "a Chopin or Liszt Etude" or "a Chopin or Liszt or Rachmanioff Etude" or "a Chopin Etude and another Etude by Liszt, Rach, or Debussy". Another one wants you to do "A Chopin or Liszt Etude, as well as a Rachmaninoff or Scriabin Etude."

Even in the E-Piano Competition in Minnesota, with their infamously long list of Etude composers, they do not mention Lyapunov.
