This is similar to CrazyDudette22's query:

I tried out the Cattle Call by Grieg (B2) today, which is one of the piano pieces on the new 2007-2008 syllabus. On bars 12-13, there are a couple of chords where I can't reach all the notes. What should I do? Should I leave out one of the notes?

Thanks

You could try leaving out a note or two - but make sure you choose ones which won't have a major effect on how the whole chord sounds. Your teacher could help you with that.

Or, if the chords are slow enough, you could spread them.

I hope it helps!

You could have given me a ring ! Spread the chords and hold them with the pedal. Glad to hear that you've made a start on the piece, though - have fun!

Thanks! I'll try that out tomorrow .
