Re: Week 2: Vienna in 19th ! @David Krupka Thank you, David, for your helpful suggestion. Regarding that chord, it is the most difficult technical challenge of the piece. I tried your other possibilities.…

Re: Week 2: Vienna in 19th ! @Barney I don't play much Zeppelin anymore. Sorry that Stairway brings up such painful memories for you. I guess that having to sight read and keep up with another player forced me to be able to…
