My go to fingering: RH starting on B ascending, 123451231234. Every octave the uses the same fingering - which is useful. Left hand is just the mirror image fingering. When I was younger, my teacher gave me a fingering that blew my mind. Essentially, it was the standard alternating 1s and 3s, however when descending in the right hand, the "3,2,1's" were placed on B, Bb,A and E,Eb,D as opposed to where the two white notes run consecutively.
I loved this video, and I wanted to introduce my favourite fingering of chromatic scales also. I believe this Liszt's innovative fingering, as it was indicated so in Chasse-Neige's chromatic scale part. Right hand: 2345 123 1234 12 It's actually unnatural to start from C, let's move it 1 back to B. Then it becomes: 12345 123 1234 So you just repeat this. Left hand when starting from C: 1 54321 4321 32 Again, it's not natural to start from C. Move one up to C#. 54321 4321 321 I used this fingering for the left hand during the polyrhythm section of Chasse-Neige when left hand had a few runs while the right hand has melody and tremolo. C# to F natural 54321, F sharp and G natural 43, and it skips to A natural so I play 1, and reverse.
👍neat, i have fun with 43 and 345, i just sort of became able to do it on my left hand, may try learning it in the right. i think it's in a chopin piece? i forgot.
I made my own version starting at C: 1234,1234,1234. Playing a black key (Ab) with the thumb (the most uncomfortable, but possible whit practice) Greetings and thank you!!
Thanks very much for this info! I’ve been looking for ways to speed it up!
Glad it was helpful!🥳

Nice explanation and playing!
Glad you enjoyed it:)
