I am really stuck on the left hand in measures 17-19. If you can have a piano at hand or imagine you have one in front of you . . . that would be superb So in the image below, the part colored red is uncomfortable; the thumb has to come back fast and cover some distance. This is especially annoying in the second red section. I can play all of it, but it comes out uneven, in volume and a little bit uneven in rhythm.The blue section is very nice and comfortable for my hand and it works.Should I keep the fingering and hope that when I finish the piece and master it that it gets more comfortable, or change the fingering? If so, can you provide some options?Thanks, Esteban
The thing is that where it comes down after the second section I have to do 4f# 1e 4d# 3e which isn't too bad.For the first part if I do what you said I have to do 2f# 4e 4 f#.I repeated the altered version and it is much smoother, more comfortbale!If anyone else has something else, please don't hesistate to post. Thanks so much!Esteban
Do you think that's better? Is it better to use the thumb or avoid it?Thanks,Esteban
Nevermind...I'll use your fingering.Thanks
Just realize "my" fingering may have been the original as noted. I would still try different fingerings to find out which fingering keeps my hand in the most natural position i.e. no stretching or acrobatics. Always a work in progress
