@joosje Thanks, Joosje! All the right hand articulation is really new to me, so what better way to dig into this challenge. It's getting there slowly. Thank you for your thoughts and encouragement.

@joosje Thanks, Joosje! I never meant that I would stop playing it, just that I wanted to move on to another piece. To be honest, though, after reading through a bit of #6-10,…
