fingering of these patterns

[kofi22]

Hello!
how would you finger these patterns on both hands?

[jonslaughter]

It depends. How big are your hands?

My suggestion is that you try different fingerings. You will find some seem easier than others. You may then find that some seem easier but seem to lead you into problem areas(where you have to do something awkward to continue).

The point of fingerings is not that there is some absolute way but that you find a way that feels most natural to YOU.

What I would do likely is RH 2 1 2 5 4 3 4 3 5 3 2 3 2 5 4 2 4 2 4 5 ...

but this is not what most people would do and is not the most musical or "natural". It is just how I play things because that is how I do things.

What most people are going to do is switch fingers on the repetition as to move the hand up for the next position and they might start with 3 1 3 5 4 3 4 1* 5.

My suggestion is that you just try to play it using any means necessary at first and then you figure out how you can improve upon it and why. It's really something unique for each person. Many times differences do not mean anything but sometimes it requires a certain fingering for performance or musicality reasons. The only way to know these things is through experimentation/practice.

Im not sure how you came to those fingerings johnslaughter but they don't work. Maybe you wrote a wrong number or something.

Im not bothered to do all of them but here is the first one:

Ex19 RH

212 432 312 532 |  312 542 412 532 | 312 542 4

Each of the exercises encourages you to use fingering which pushes the hand in a direction up or down. In ex19 it is the RH thumb use that pushes the hand up.

It could also use this if you want to play it in groups and have no need to keep it all smooth.
212 432 212 532 etc

Yeah, I have no idea what I wrote there ;/ My piano is away from my computer(but in a strange computer seutp(multiple monitors, keyboards, mouse) and I copied an pasted the fingerings and I think something got screwed up. I remember the 2nd beat getting deleted or something when I tried to paste and thought I'd fixed it but I guess not.
