June 26, 20178 yr Fantastisch! This piece makes me smile. Theme A has a simple, vivid melody and I like the sudden stops in mm.10 - 11. The repetitions of the melody in m.12 en m.20 help the humoresque mood even more. The second theme is a bit more complex than theme A and there is a sort of development section in here. Just when I thought this complexity was enough the A theme returned and that made my day. :-) I don't know if the fast triplet passage in the right hand in mm. 46 - 47 is possible, because I am not a pianist. Do you know if it's possible? By the way, you should fix some lay-out issues, for instance in m.8, mm.16 - 18, m.20 etc. A tempo indication might help as well. Goed gedaan! Dankjewel! Maarten

Maarten Dankjewel voor je reactie!;) I am very glad you enjoyed the piece. Concerning the fast triplets; in m.46 the right hand takes the upper line of the bass cleff(wich I forgot to notate); m.47 is extremely difficult, I might make thirds out of them instead of sixths. Good point on the tempo. Nogmaals bedankt! :)
June 26, 20178 yr Yes it's very nice! I think there are quite difficult parts, some of them are not properly notated.

June 27, 20178 yr A truly humorous work: it's not easy to fit the bill! Measures 5-6 and similar are impossible to play without rolling the LH: I would cancel a note for not losing momentum

I am aware of the rolling hand, but I don't agree with your solution. ;) A good pianist will be able to cover it up nicely I think. Thanks for listening and commenting!

Thanks for listening and commenting! They would need Rachmaninoff-like hands for it. Basically they would need to expand an octave with the 5th and 2nd finger and then some extra with the first.

June 28, 20178 yr My piano teacher had small hands, but she could tickle you from across the room and you'd never see it coming! Never a problem with Bartok. Edited June 29, 20178 yr by Ken320
