Chromatic scale in 2nds, 6ths, 4ths fingering chart.
on: February 23, 2009, 02:06:29 PM
Anyone have a compilation of standard (if there is such a thing) or/and alternative  fingerings for:
1) chromatic scale, contrary and simular motion
2) double sixths in every major and harmonic minor scale and chromatic.
3) chromatic scales in double thirds
4) chromatic scales in double 4ths

Best,

Pletter Bleck

Cortot's rational principles of pianoforte technique has a rather comprehensive fingering i believe

I think you should be able to get Cortot's book somewhere out there in the jungle we call the internet
