Can you point out to such "agreed" fingering somewhere? Because as a self learner I perhaps had no chance to know which one is it?
- thaunatos 5y agoHere's an example fingering chart for major scales: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/20/36/98/203698fda995f78e86211897b07d3f36.jpg https://i.pinimg.com/originals/20/36/98/203698fda995f78e8621... For the chromatic scale, I was taught to alternate 3 and 1, using 2 when there are two white keys in a row.
- gabrielsroka 5y agoI learned it a little bit differently, for example https://youtu.be/twc_Yo4LFJI https://youtu.be/twc_Yo4LFJI
- lovelyviking 5y agoAs I understand it's not different at all. Diagram shows how you play it continiously (not one octave only)
- oplav 5y agoA more generic rule I heard later on was to not use your thumb on black keys (when playing scales). That constraint can sometimes help with other fingerings falling into place more intuitively.
