I am currently attempting to play this piece, but the edition I have does not care much for fingering.

Does anyone have/know of an edition that has lots of this? Those huge cords are a lot easier to sight read for me with fingering, so it's a bit essential.

Also, any advice on practicing the piece (I have never understood the reason for people asking this, but I might as well since I'm creating this thread) would be great.

Thanks!

Well I would advise you to look up the sonetto itself by Petrach: I believe that it is titled ' I find no peace, nor reason to make war.' Also remember that this is a transcription of an earlier work by Liszt and it was a song, so now you must make the piano sing. Here, check out IMSLP:

https://imslp.org/wiki/Ann%C3%A9es_de_p%C3%A8lerinage_II,_Suppl%C3%A9ment,_S.162_(Liszt,_Franz)

I have the Verlag of the entire Pelerinage, although it may not have as many finger markings as you would like...

Best of luck!

Well the edition i ALWAYS use is the Peters edition, for me, it has the best options in fingerings, and is the most clear, it's my favorite
