Feux d'Artifice; Need serious help with fingering!!

[nanabush]

Measure 36:  After the two right hand chords, should my left hand play the entire arpeggiation, or should i distribute it.

Measures 42-45:  My left hand is big, and it can stretch, and playing that arpeggiation entirely with the left hand is extremely awkward, and I can't find a way to distribute that between both hands, is there a way or do I have to make due with just the left hand?

That's all for now, I'm not quite at measure 42 yet    but for the future when I do reach it, I'll know in advance, because I just tried it quickly and it wasn't working out.

One more thing, can I do the double glissandi with one hand?  I find it much easier, or is that like the worst idea ever...

36: On the first two I play the notes on the middle staff with the RH, but when the RH has its triplets, the LH has to do everything. Don't rocket through the first two (even though that's the point of splitting it between the hands), and stretch the time when the LH has the do the whole thing. It all works itself out eventually.

42: The LH has the do the whole thing because the RH needs to jump around the upper registers. If you want, you can split it for the first run, but that's pointless because you'll end up playing it faster than your LH can do alone.

Everything in this piece has a fairly simple solution, you just have to give it a bit of work. PM me if you want anymore in depth advice. Oh, and one more tip: don't even bother trying to pass the thumb in the arpeggios in this piece; it isn't worth it.

Thanks alot, cept for 42 you mean dont use my thumb at all?

[kriskicksass]

I meant don't try to pass the thumb under the hand. There's no need for legato, and this piece is too fast to even try. This piece, along with Un Sospiro, convinced me to add the thumb-over arpeggio to my technique.
