Fingering help
on: November 26, 2004, 04:38:35 PM
I need fingering help.  It is a LH passage From Beethoven Eroica variations - about measure 61 (if I counted correctly).  It starts on E-flat, goes down to d, then into double thirds - Eb&C, D&Bb, C&Ab, Bb&G, and ends on D&Ab&F.  They are all 16ths, and I can't get them fast.  Of course I can play them smoothly slowly, so I'm looking for a different fingering to try.  Any help would be appreciated.
When you earnestly believe you can compensate for a lack of skill by doubling your efforts, there's no end to what you can't do.
