    How hard is this part?

    Not difficult. First movement, 6 measures after J, I play enharmonics. You have an arpeggiated chord (downward) in the left hand (written F#, C#, G#) which I play as F#, Db, Ab. It will be easier if you can get someone’s markings, but most of it is pretty obvious. Definitely get a good recording.

    There is one really bad transition on the first page, I think, that I try to fake, as it seems unplayable. Does anyone have a great solution for it?

    It’s not that bad.
