 Dear Skt:
 It's impossible to answer without some further informations. Where did it come from?

im pretty sure you won't know where its from cause its some piece from a drama long vacation. normally i don't play these kind of pieces but i thought this one was too nice to not learn.

 Dear Skt:
 I wanted to know because fingering is not only about pitch: it's about rhythm, phrase, accents, dynamics, agogics, expression, pedalling, etc; i.e., about everything. That's it, without a proper look at the score, a suggestion of fingering is normally useless to myself.
 I see no problem in learning such repertory, although personally I don't have any interest in do this. Anybody with its own problems...  ;D
 About the answer itself, the passage made me think. There are at least three major possibilities, and I didn't have the time yet to try them. I promise that as soon as possible I'll provide some ideas.
 Best!

I would it play with

1 2 3 4  then 1 on G# (!!!) 2 3 4 5   1 on G# 2 3 4 5  1 2 5

LH the same (with 5 on G#)



for the second figure I don't know because it's not on the sheet.
If it doesn't work - try something different!
