Anyone have a view on which part is better to attempt if you are the weaker player?

i think the second part only has technical challenges in the fugue inthe last movement, and that only on one page really

I wouldn't say it is technically trivial in either part.

But I looked at (and did not perform) this, and I think in this case the secondo might be somewhat easier.

For instance, there is a time when you have chords in extremely dotted rhythm. I believe the Secondo has octaves and the Primo has octaves + extra notes between them.

Then there'd also be pedaling....
