The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

You should ask ariel12345.  He gives a splendid performance in the audition room.

Drazh:  My score suggests the 3rd finger for the grace note in measure 14. 3rd finger on C# to the 2nd finger on B.  Same fingering for the next grace note (A to G#).

If you're talking about the grace note variation of the opening theme.

I use c#b 32, a#g#32,123 Fxg#a#, then 32 for f# e

Mostly finger 32

I've played La Campanella at 60 per dotted crotchet until the end of the triplet variation of the piece many times. Though I don't play La Campanella at that speed, I can do it repeatedly without any strains.

Just watch my La Campanella videos.
