great to see a thread like this. I have a beginner's question: am I reading this part correctly?



to play the part in blue, am I supposed to hit B, then G# and E at the same time, release the E after half as long as I held B, then let go of G# and press the same E again?

it seems difficult to make that sound right :shobon:

Yes you are describing it right. Make sure you mind the downbeats and upbeats correctly. From the beginning of that measure:

1) on the first beat, play the low E with your left hand and the G# with your right
2) on the upbeat, release your left hand and play that B with your right hand

3) on the second beat, move all the way up to that higher E with your left hand, and play the G# with your right hand. And now for the tricky part, but it's not so bad:
4) on the upbeat, release your left hand and play the E with your right hand instead

Then go on from there. The way you deal with problematic spots like this is to SLOW WWAAAAYYYY DOWN, and isolate the problem, and tackle it over and over. Play this measure in a loop, maybe, and don't go back to the piece as a whole until you have the measure down. Don't just play the whole piece over and over, because you'll keep messing up this one spot, and what's worse, you'll get in the habit of messing up and then you'll find it much harder to correct the error.

So good luck with that!

thanks, this advice helped a lot. I'd been using the right hand for both E's, and your fingering works a lot better.
