No fixed formulas, no “seasonal jazz” clichés — just strong pianistic voices working with familiar material. This year, the live concert is on pause. Here’s what changed, and where pianists can still turn for meaningful jazz piano Christmas listening and playing. Read more

need Help w/ "Rage Over a Lost Penny" fingering
on: May 26, 2004, 07:18:18 AM
I've come to the second to last page of Beet's Rondo a Cappricio Op. 129 - it's a tough passage much like Chopin's Op. 10 #2, beginning (on my edition) 25 bars from the end of this page, at the a tempo.  I'm struggling with the fingering I devised, which is (starting at the sixteenths in the RH):
(421) 5 4 3 (421) 5 4 3 (211) 5 4 3 (21) 5 4 3 (5321)
- poor text editor, had to group the chords w/ parentheses

and for the second run:
(421) 5 4 3 (421) 5 4 2 (5321)

No fingerings are written in on my music- I'm in dire need of assitance with this passage, because after this much practice, it usually clicks [and its not] - thanks

A modern house without a flush toilet... uncanny.
