Re: READ ME and POST HERE!
@Natalie Peh thanks! Still working on the left hand to create the right mood, as the notes span such a large range, I find myself still searching for the right note sometimes.

Re: Problem Solving Chopin's Etudes with Marina Lomazov!
Etude Op10 No5 Gb major. Measures 57-64. How to not strain the right hand and how should it sound? Measures 80-82. How to be accurate with the right hand as it ascends up? Thanks!
