Post your piano/keys stuff here. Ripping some Chopin, Beethoven, Bartok, or whoever? Love it. Just got a new Hammond and rotary speaker and want to show it off? Can't get enough of it. Got a band with a really awesome keyboardist, and want to show them off? Gimme it. Stuck in the orchestra pit with nothing to do for three hours waiting for your one moment of celesta glory on The Magic Flute? I feel your pain. Just discovered Oscar Peterson and want to share your astonishment? Fam, same. Learning piano and got noob questions? I'm here for it. Got an original DX7 and want to show us all how to program new voices? I've actually never figured that out, can you teach me too?

Rules:

  1. Don't be a jerk.
  2. Self-promotion is encouraged, but try to also post stuff that isn't you.
  3. Be cool about giving and receiving feedback. When in doubt, see r1.
  4. Having fun is mandatory.

Tips for playing Chopin's Op 25 No 5 cleanly (feddit.de)

Hello,

I am currently on a quest to learn Chopin's etudes. I know there is a path full of pain ahead of me, but I want to do it for the challenge nonetheless. For my first target I picked the "Wrong Note" etude because I really dig the dissonant character (even though I'm aware it's not the easiest of the etudes)

I quickly noticed that the most important aspect is to keep the high notes in the right hand clean and bright so they kinda lay on top of the dissonant seconds. Is there any specific technique, or do you have any tips on how to play this properly? Or is this just completely wrong and I shouldn't worry about it and just push through it?

Note: No, for me the tenths in the left hand aren't the biggest problem. I've read this a couple times on different forums and I don't have that problem at all, I find the left hand to be the easiest part of the entire etude
