Re: how to get unstuck?

what tetiana said - go slow when working it out.
i have my students make a chart on a piece of paper:

56 ___
60 ___
63 ___
66 ___
69 ___
72 ___
76 ___

etc. up to the desired tempo. make sure you start off however slow you have to so that you can play it without error.
check off each tempo when you can play it 3 in a row , perfect.
then move up to the next tempo.

this needs to be repeated over multiple days ; you won't solve issues like this all in one practice session.

getting them to actually work it out to this level is the difficult part - they're too impatient - this takes much repetition over multiple days, concentration, and a desire to master the passage.

don't practice until it is right - practice until it is never wrong...
