    So… this is a lively piece.
    How do you actually play the harmonics for the last 8 bars of that piece?

    While it seems that the harmonics in the rest of the piece are meant to be played where they are written, it’s quite difficult to play them clean.

    Having heard xavier de maistre’s recording, he seem to play them an octave lower for these higher harmonitcs, but keeping the bass A harmonic where it’s written.

    Are there 2 ways to play them? or should they be correctly played, as written?
