Fingering in Mozart D-minor Concerto first movement
on: November 13, 2013, 09:28:54 PM
I've been trying to find good fingering for the right hand in these bars that concludes the piano's introduction in the first movement of Mozarts Piano Concerto in d-minor but I'm not sure wich way to go. I've tried beginning with the thumb but find you have to cross the fingers to much. I've also tried beginning with the third finger and crossing over with the second finger on C#. Do you have any tips on good fingering?

I think your instinct is right on your second method - i.e. ending the scale going down on the C# with 2 (crossing over your thumb) then doing 3-4-5 with some wrist for the arpeggio and do the same fingering again. For the second arpeggio that ends up in with the high A's, I think keeping 2 as the higher C# "fulcrum" might work too. So before that is up to you, from the lower C# as 2, then 3-1-2, with the thumb being used on the lower A twice.
For the last downward section in the last measure, doing 3-5-2-4 looks like it would work for each phrase moving your hand position for each phrase.

What edition are you working with? In all the recordings I've listened to and scores I've worked with, that passage goes like this:
