hey, my first post here! I went looking for a forum to ask help on this. How do I go about playing Flight Of The Bumblebee?!?! I'm just a beginner but its my goal and early tips are welcome:-) I want to learn it for my friend, he challenged me to it, and even if i spend my next few years on it, i'll do it ::) well let me know if you got any tips for me :-/

Probably the best thing I can tell you to learn this piece is play it VERY SLOWLY... Especially since you are just beginning, this piece can be very chalenging... Work out the fingering with your teacher, if you have one, and remember that your hands can do different things when they go slow, or when they go fast... If you want some specific fingerings that will work both slow and fast, send me a message, and I'll copy thos for you!!! There was another thread about this piece somewhere on this forum... I can't find it right now, but you might want to look for that. Good luck, and have fun!
Love,
Sarah

Nemo,
I only have the fingering for the dfirst part, because that was all that I had trouble figuring out... So, I'll give you what I have... And we can hope that it goes from there!!
Love,
Sarah
43134313432131321 and you keep going from there. That's the first 17 notes, and you can repeat that, eliminating the 4 from the beginning.
In measures 4-7, I split it between the hands. The first and fifth note should be taken with your LH, and the rest with your RH... That's all the further I got with my fingering... I hope that will give you something to work with!
