@Barney Carlevaro has some good exercises (eje 198 - 202) in his Cuaderno #2 that helps with elasticity and developing speed.

Re: Week 4: Serenade Showcase
@Eric Phillips FYI, Carlevaro who studied this Prelude with HVL, also recommends playing that section as you played it with only changing the upper voice. Excellent decision on your part.
