Hi Jarred, I have a question about sound production in Mozartās music, particularly in the context of the Taubman approach. How can we create a clear, āpearl-likeā sound using forearm motion instead of excessive finger motion?
Another question is how to transfer the forearm weight in the fast passage, especially for small hands. In K279 Mvt1 (31-34) and (39-41), whenever I use open position 5321 or 5421 (red fingerings) at a fast tempo, my fingers tend to stretch and hovering on the previous position without releasing. In a slow tempo, however, it works fine that I can release and transfer the weight without stretching. It feels like thereās a missing link between slow practice and playing in tempo.
For (31-34) I was able to find alt fingerings (blue fingerings) without the stretchy hand position and that seems to work, but for (39-41) I couldn't find alt solutions, do you have any suggestions?
