Part One of my tutorial covers music up to measure 34. I discussed how to play the repeated chords lightly and rhythmically, how to make the jumps clean and accurate, how to keep your hands supple and reduce the tension when playing heavy chordal sections. Other details such as tempo, pedal, and fingering suggestions are also included.
