Hi,

I'm back again here with a question to correct fingering. So for the song my DD is playing right now (Ode to Joy) it's easy to tell which finger to use.

But as I'm also learning, for me it's much more complicated. I have begun to play the songs in the category Classics I, today I started "Radetzky March" and have no idea, when to use which finger??

Could you please help me? Is there a tutorial somewhere?

Thanks a lot!

Before I will jump into helping you, please, tell me: did you start learning 4 exercises? They all consist of the main rules in your finger management. For instance, if we skip a key, we skip a finger (unless this is not a thumb and index that could be easily stratched).
Also, please, place the song on 6 and give me bars #s where you are having problems.

Hi Hellene,

Thank you for your answer. I began 2 days ago with the different exercices and I have to say, that already helps me lot.

I still have 2 more questions: do I always have to play the same key with the same finger? For example Ti with the 4th finger or Re with the 2nd finger as in the exercise C major? And the black keys should always be played with the middle finger as in the exercise Chromatic Scale?

What do you mean by "place the song on 6?"

By the way: I like your e-book very much, it is very interesting and eye-opening!

Absolutely not! There is no straight connection between the notes and finger numbers!

For example Ti with the 4th finger or Re with the 2nd finger as in the exercise C major?


It is just a general fingers management giving you an idea what is the best way to use your fingers.

And the black keys should always be played with the middle finger as in the exercise Chromatic Scale?


Black keys could also be played by 2nd finger. Sometimes you can use even thumb! It is all depends...

What do you mean by "place the song on 6?"

Press 6 on you computer keyboard, when the song is opened

By the way: I like your e-book very much, it is very interesting and eye-opening!


Thank you! It was written by my and soul! :)

Hello Hellene,

Thank you so much for your quick answer. Ok, so now I understand, that the keys don't have fix fingers, that's good. Because when I tried this, it was very hard to play.

My husband also exercices with the software and he said today, he is already placing his fingers automatically, so I hope, I will also with a bit of exercice.

If I still have problems, I will send you the # at the view 6. Thank you so much!

Best regards,
BK

You don't have to send me the view - just let me know, what # of bar is it. If you will press 6, you will se these numbers in the beginning of each line
