The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

Chopin Op.25 No.1

on: May 07, 2003, 07:59:56 PM

I'm having a bit of trouble with the awkward R.H. fingering of bar 11 beats 2 and 3.Most of the etude uses a 5,2,3,1,2,3 fingering for the right hand which I suspect I am supposed to stick to at this point, but at speed it's a problem and I find 5,1,3,1,2,3 easier, but am I missing the point? Although my edition has no specified fingering, is it Chopin's intention for me to overcome this fingering problem?I'm probably just being lazy and avoiding the problem.What do you think? :-/
