Chopin Minute Waltz edition with LH fingerings
on: August 11, 2011, 01:11:04 PM
Anyone know of an edition Of Chopin's Minute Waltz that includes extensive left-hand fingerings?  Willing to buy if necessary, as I've found numerous public domain PDFs with few/no fingerings.

First question: (not meaning to be rude)
Why would you want left hand fingerings?
Its a waltz after all, its only a note and two chords!
Any piano starter can also guess the fingering of a waltz. Its only the right hand that needs fingering.

There is only one chord in the fast section that I had a question about, but nonetheless, I like editions where there are extensive fingerings so I can learn it as quickly as possible. 

I'm a very busy musician who plays multiple instruments, and I don't like to waste time on figuring out piano fingerings.  If I'm in a time crunch, why do so if an editor is willing to supply them?
