Fingering for a chromatic run...
on: September 11, 2004, 02:16:17 PM
I wrote this piece about a month ago and I looked over it yesterday and made some changes and I added this chromatic run... but I don't know what fingers to use  :-[

Help?

Here is a sibelius file for it:

It is just an ordinary chromatic scale from F to F... I suck at chromatics. Wanna know if I'm doing it wrong

Ok,
I think your chormatic run starts on a C and decends one octave. if so you would start with your 4th finger on the top C and decend acordingly (4) 3 2  1 3 1 3 213132
                                                    c   b b*a etc...
(*=flat)

Ok? I liked the peice by the wa. i can see some obvious romantic influences. Have you writen anything else?

Thank you and double thank you. I started my 2nd year of piano recently so I'm not familar with chromatic fingersettings.  ;D

I've written a few more things mostly short stuff as you can see in your other thread. Thank you again. :)
