is there a reason that you are not rolling all the chords like it says in the score? Is it because its kind of like a cheaters method for people with smaller hands? Since you and I have big hands, is it not necessary to roll the chords?

[pianomnn]

@MusicIhave It's just my own interpretation. I like the way it sounds without the roll. Sometimes Gershwin left some rolls out as well in certain spots in his original piano recordings. I suppose the rolls were also for pianists who had smaller hands.

Thanks,

Rich

jealous.

[pianomnn]

@MusicIhave Who is?

[MusicIhave]

@pianomnn I am. Very jealous. Im learning this piece right now, and you're clarity and precision making me very jealous.

[pianomnn]

@MusicIhave Oh, I understand. You could play this just as well if you were to put in the time that it takes. It's a big sacrifice. I spend the first hour and 15 min. just warming up with various kinds of technical exercises like most good pianists. It's not easy to do each and every day, but it is necessary. Do the difficult sections of the piece over and over again. They will become exercises in a sense. You must have endurance and patience. You can do it! Good Luck.
