 Rose 23 (32 etudes) Q.
Author: SVSorna05

Hi, im just curious if these etudes can be acceptably altered and accepted by a judging panel. I'm trying to find a musical solution to a technical problem with the eighth note tied to the 32nd note run. Would it be acceptable to put a ritard on the descending run and end the phrase with the quarter rest and start the tempo normal afterwards. I hope this makes sense. Thanks a lot

I would play the entire adagio portion of the etude at 88-104 to the eighth note, which makes that passage very playable.

We talking about the fifteenth bar?

What's the problem? I tend to take that section at about quarter=60 (perhaps slower, never faster) with significant rubato, which leaves plenty of time for everything.

As Chris suggests, it's a slow etude. Andante only applies to the first 8 bars.

Different interpretations of the Rose Etudes is what makes them so interesting to play and teach.

That being said, there is NO ONE WAY to play them. Some ways, of course, are better than others.

Remember, these are exercise materials to be used in building technique, endurance, interpretation and phrasing.

In #23, I actually prefer to play and teach the first 8 measures as two different cadenzas - unmetered, very rubato and expressive.

The metered tempo, I feel should begin in measure 9, no faster than quarter note = 54. At that speed, the written 32nd notes in measure 15 will sound stately and not rushed.

This is a wonderful etude for working on phrasing, control of the different registers and careful placement of the fingers.

Measure and plan your breaths accordingly to highlight the long melodic lines...GBK
