how should the barcarolle op 60 coda be played
on: August 22, 2025, 12:23:12 AM
Finished the whole song after a month or two, but still tryna polish up the damn difficult coda.

does anyone know the proper way its supposed to be played? i mean like how should it sound? should the right hand be louder than the left, or should i have some parts of the left be louder? Right now its kind of a mix of some parts being louder than others and I'm not sure what sort of image I should be projecting when playing the coda

If you're having trouble figuring out how some music should sound, wouldn't you seek our some recordings online?  That's the answer.  You can easily find 6 different pianists' recordings and see how they differ in the balancing and integrating of the two hands.
