Fingering for Liszt Appassionatta

on: April 12, 2016, 09:15:10 AM

Hi everyone, I have this problem with the fingering for the left hand for Appassionata below.

It feels slightly awkward and inefficient to do 2-1-4-2-5-1-3-2-5-3 just wondering if there is a better fingering.

EDIT: seems like the pic is not working; here it is https://imgur.com/a7iWn6W

Key signature? I'm guessing four flats but next time pls show it

The fingering you posted is the one I'd do. Make sure you use rotation, and point your hand slightly to the right.

Think of it as each group of 5 is the hand in one position and the transition from the first group is accomplished by moving from the 5 to 1 to start the second group.

If it is tough, get each group of 5 notes under control first, then bridge them together.
