Rachmaninoff C# minor-agitato

on: May 02, 2005, 02:47:35 AM

I've been working on the Rachmaninoff c# minor prelude, and for those of you who have played it, what tempo do you use in the agitato section. I was using 162 for quarter notes, but I've been told that's way too fast, and that agitato is just agitated, not necesarrily fast. Any opinions?
