Spain is harder technically, but Fleurette Africaine/Little African Flower is harder to really get to. It takes less dexterity, but but much more feeling to be those petals, that wind
I remember that well. What a wonderful piece. How could Chick still play Spain in his late 70s? Wrong question how could he ever play it and keep playing it for Almost 50 years. I just listened to a bunch of Spains on You Tube from over his whole career? So scary. Stay safe David. But on some level the Little African flower is even harder.
