F# minor first inversion fingering

[kazlock]

As you can tell from my question I'm a novice. I have large hands and my middle finger is always catching the adjacent black keys (G# and A# in this case). How is this normally fingered?

2-3-1-2-3-1-2-3, then 4 crosses over for later octaves

Thank you, but I was talking about the chord F# A C#. What fingers do you use for that?

That's root position. First inversion would be A C# F#.

For the chord F# A C# different fingerings are possible, depending on how it occurs in a piece. For the right hand you could use 235 or 124. For the left hand, 542 or 321.

Oh! My bad. I thought you meant scales.
There's a bunch of different fingerings; I personally have a large 2-4 reach, so if I use 1-2-4, there's a bunch of extra space in my hand, which I don't like. So, I use 1-2-3 a lot of the time, but as michael said it depends on where it comes up in a piece.

Thanks for the replies. I have one more question that isn't worth making a new thread for. Is there a book with all the arpeggios, major, and minor scales with recommended fingerings?

Also, I still haven't memorized all 88 notes on the staff, will that come naturally or should I do exercises to learn them?

Yes, several, such as this one.

Nor has anyone else.

Learn the notes actually on the stave and two leger lines either side. The rest, to the extent it ever comes, will happen over time with your playing pieces that actually use them.
