Chopin Waltz Op34 Nr 2
on: February 05, 2005, 10:30:00 PM
Against some advice from this forum im working on this one as a first chopin piece (for my teacher its ok, she said it will be a little bit hard for me...)

Bar 29 requires the LH to hold c# and then play g a e - its possible, but really feels clumsy. Is there an "elegant" way to play that or have i just to stretch my hand? Bar 31 the same feeling with e plus ac#g.

It's possible, but you need to have large hands or increased flexibility in your hands.

Or you could just use the pedal ;)

But you didn't here that from me.

I concur. ;) Use the pedal.
