SurveY!!!

Pianists, and musicians, and everyone who has heard pieces from my FTCL programme before:

1) Waldstein is a happy sonata. True or false? Why?
2) Bach's Toccata in C minor BWV 911 has the longest fugue. (that's true.) What kind of touch should be used? Is it an organ fugue or harpsichord fugue?
3) Chopin Scherzo in B flat minor is a show piece and little else. True or false? Why?
4) How to play octave glissandi?

Hmm use the comments button to answer...




(yay A's are 2/5ths over!)

1. you can't simply classify waldstein under happy or sad.. but for the most part its quite happy i suppose. unlike op57. think heroic period! EROICA! HAHAHA
2. bach! harpsichord la..but i think that fugue sounds very nice on pianoforte
3. its not!! chopin doesn't write mere showpieces! he was a poet! they don't show off for nothing [...]
4. uh what's the last qn man i forgot.. oh HAAHA use horowitz's piano it had particularly light action =]
