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 -

You will save more time in the long run by learning to read music.

I use this fingering for the passage in question:
