I've noticed that often, after having carefully selected a fingering, my hand after a while subconsciously determines that it prefers an entirely different fingering. This often happens when I find a fingering that works for slow practice, but doesn't work in fast tempo. So trying out various fingerings both slowly and quickly (where needed) is something I would recommend. Another thing I noticed is that my hands tend to prefer parallel movements, such as using the thumbs simultaneously. I'll often work out a fingering for say, the left hand, only to find that when playing together with the right, the left hand prefers to mirror the right hand fingering, even if that fingering is less economic.
Also, I find it very helpful to drop a piece for a while and reconsider the fingerings once again with fresh mind, kinesthetic and ear memory after I return to the piece.
It’s good to see that you’re still around. Thank you very much for the lesson. It was very helpful - and reassuring.
Thank you for your lesseons. Very helpful.
Extremely helpful advice!
I invested in a white pen so I can white out with precision the fingering that does not work for me. I then write in my fingering .
Wow, that's a neat way :-)
I must try that too.
My score's always a battlefield of corrections and corrections of corrections ... ;-)
It was very helpful. Thank you.
This is gold
Graham- hi! Just wanted to thank you so so much for this. Especially the fingering suggestions for étude # 1. You should consider putting that in the title because I have a feeling this video would surge if people knew the gold that is in here! ☺️
Really helpful. Thank you.
Graham Fitch - your videos are fantastic. I'm so glad you continue to create these tutorials. Thank you!
I wonder if I could run something by you:
What you think of the idea of placing a camera overhead, facing straight down at the keyboard, so that viewers may enjoy the same POV as you? The critical arm/wrist/hand motions you demonstrate are certainly best captured with a camera from the side, but many times I find myself wishing I were able to clearly view the fingerings you are using. An overhead shot would provide that. Thanks for your consideration!
Strongly agree and just comment the same
excellent, thanks
I would subscribe so fast to this channel if you would use a top down camera. I have no idea what keys are pressed from that camera angle and I might as well not look at the video at all. Hearing such wonderful lectures without proper visualization (who cares about nice piano/teacher B shots in a lesson anyway?) shows me there is so much interesting stuff to learn, but teaches me nothing. This makes me think this channel is geared toward more advanced pianists and a low subscriber count seems almost intentional.
