Right-hand fingering
How to do it
- Right hand: finger 3 on black keys, finger 1 on white keys (at E-F and B-C, two white keys with 1-2).
- Move straight toward the back of the keys, without wrist swaying.
- Start very slow and raise the tempo only when perfectly even.
Variations
- Start from other notes and extend to 2 octaves.
- Hands together in contrary motion: the most classic way to practise it.
- Try it in triplets and in groups of four.
