In situations like this, I often find one hand coping better than the other. I seize that opportunity to put all my attention into the less successful hand, while not even looking at the better hand.
In your "The Hardest Note"/"Never Trust a G# Minor" sections , I take the last note of the LH before the big LH jump (e.g., A#, G#, F#) with he RH. Makes life much easier.
For voicing to the top note, I often find it helps to slightly rotate my forearm towards the pinky end of the hand, and then keep whichever finger has the melody note fairly firm. A voicing exercise I sometimes like to do is to play the whole chord I'm trying to voice, but then immediately release all the notes I want to make quieter, while continuing to hold the note I want to make louder. This helps me separate the layers and find the hand shape and movement that will get me the sound I want. Hope this helps.
I think I mostly changed pedal every 8th note beat, unless the harmony doesn't change for a few beats, in which case I might hold it out the whole time.
Very late comment, but you’ve been an extremely large help in my journey of learning this hellish piece. Thanks so much for all you did. ❤❤

Wonderfully edited, funny, and extremely useful! You must have the most underrated channel I've come across in a while.

Thanks, much appreciated! I hope it was useful, or at least entertaining. 😀
I think Yundi Li's speed is better
Hey, not sure if you'll see this, but what's the best way to practice voicing in the chords at then black key measures, and at the end andantino?

Quite curious,how should I handle this part's pedal? 3:20 These consecutive octaves are making my sound so dirty :(
