... on the same manual.
Apologies for the probably very beginnerish question, but I have been wondering about how one is supposed to play when both hands end up having to play the same note (sometimes of different lengths) when playing on the same manual.
For example, take the BWV 564 toccata, the 5th measure after the end of the pedal solo (where the right hand has the sixteenth note figure F - E - G - C - E ...) towards the end of that measure the left hand comes in playing the same figure transposed, while the right hand plays some fifths, the right hand is playing a dotted quarter G, while the left hand ends up having to play a 16th E - G - C while the right hand is holding G.
What do you do in this case? Very quickly lift your right thumb (in this case) so the left hand thumb can restrike the G, and then again as the left hand leaves the G re-restrike it with the right thumb and hold it for the remaining 16th?
Again, apologies for the very beginnerish question, I have only ever had some piano lessons in my life and we never covered substitutions or this kind of situation so I am a bit uncertain on how to proceed: when listening to organists playing this you can hear the G articulated, so I am thinking that the above is how they play it, but it'd be nice to know for sure...
