The MIDI accompaniment CD contains the secondo part performed on a digital keyboard with the typical electronic special effects. |
The B section is a virtual solo for secondo, with primo finishing the melodies with scale passages in octaves. |
I couldn't resist recording the secondo on my Disklavier and playing the primo along with it. |
The secondo player gets the melody in measures 17-24, so balance is important. |
The primo part always contains melodic material, while the secondo part contains mainly accompanimental passagework. |
Before you start to play, please do not forget to pull either the Choro primo or the Choro secondo drawstop to hear any sound at all. |
