I came here looking to see if that one beat of rest after the first glissando was a typo or not. I've heard performances where it was skipped, but you are steadfast that it's intentional. I'll play it that way. And guess what, I even picked up a tip or two. Thank you.
You’re welcome! I don’t know if there’s any merit to the idea that the rest is a typo…I will confess I’ve never considered it because I’ve seen the same rest in at least three different books. I suppose the “silliness” of the unexpected rest is in line with the character of unpredictable clowns. Thanks for watching!
Do you have other pieces in the intermediate repertoire that you'd like me to cover in a future video? Leave a comment here!
C'est toujours un plaisir de vous écouter Mme Williamson. Vous êtes sans nul doute une excellente pédagogue.
Merci beaucoup!
