Doubts about piano registration ⟨User:Craigbakalian⟩

[Mohammed Lee]

Hi Mr Bakalian

Im Mohammed, and im a bachelor violin studient in the conservatory

Iv been making an overview on your sextet composition "Love Potion"; and I have found a possible writing mistake.
In bar 54, the piano part has an A flat triad chord, but the A flat note is lower than the piano register.

I know the colour will be different if that note will dissapear. What is your solution about that?

I´ll be glad you can answer me. Sorry for my English and a very hug strong.

There are a number of pieces written that take advantage of the extended range of the Imperial Bösendorfer (and other) pianos.

Here I obtain almost the same sound (without the 8va sign) if I play the A flat one octave higher.
