Subj: [kl] Firebird Variation (G#-A "trill")
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 1998 01:39:34 -0400

Hello everyone...

I was mind boggled today while at work and want an answer to one
question:

Is it common for the "trill" between the G# and A just above the staff to
be awkward (i.e. as in the Firebird opening to the variation (not exactly
a trill)...and the trill in the slow opening of the Weber Concertino)?

Just wondering...cuz my arm seems to tense up and prevents me from
playing it "fast enough."

I hope somebody is familiar with my problem ;)

(Words of encouragement are preferred ;)
