I simply require the fingering for a single section of this piece or a tutorial that shows me what fingers to use. I'm referring to 53-57 seconds in this recording of Szpilman. No I cannot simply tell you where on the score it is because I can (basically) not read music and finding the point on the score would take ages so this is a quicker way. I will be able to learn the rest of the piece I just need to learn good fingering for this part so I can play with more power (I can already play this part but its not good enough). If you don't have any advice to give me on THIS PIECE ONLY, don't give me any.

Thank you -

I use this fingering for the passage in question:

Women and the Chopin Competition: Breaking Barriers in Classical Music

The piano, a sleek monument of polished wood and ivory keys, holds a curious, often paradoxical, position in music history, especially for women. While offering a crucial outlet for female expression in societies where opportunities were often limited, it also became a stage for complex gender dynamics, sometimes subtle, sometimes stark. From drawing-room whispers in the 19th century to the thunderous applause of today’s concert halls, the story of women and the piano is a narrative woven with threads of remarkable progress and stubbornly persistent challenges.
