Darn the sound died on this one.

Very helpful. . I wonder if you could make a video discussing Chopins broken chord patterns and suggesting exercises. There seems to be a missing step between the basic broken chords we all learn and the extended and decorated figures which Chopin employs ingeniously. I am hoping to post some of my own ideas, but you seem much better equipped to make a contribution.

YES! Revolutionary Etude!!!! I love that song! Hehe! ^^
I am playing the first movement of Beethoven's Pathetique. I have tiny hands. How do I make the left hand octave notes even? I get sore after about 4 pages and my left hand tends to lag.
ps- you're amazing by the way

@pinkie35 That's a really tough question. However, players of "La Campanella" may understand, as it has many large skips. The most important thing to remember is to help your hand to release by allowing the least amount of tension possible. Start very slowly, rotating back and forth, and slowly increase, making sure you maintain evenness. Eventually it will start feeling much more natural and you will be able to accommodate this. Let me know if that helps :)
