Alfor's Rarities

Thanks, Alfred. I updated my copy. The fingering you have for the right hand on the 3d line would never have occurred to me (2 & 3).

Querido amigo, de nada!

But which page and bar do you mean???

Page 12 Bar 10-12, right hand. It would never have occurred to me to change to the 3rd finger from the 2nd on the E. And of course it is imminently sensible, once you pointed it out.

John IRELAND
Sonatina movement I

Ireland Sonatina mvt.IB fingered.pdf

While this tightly and perfectly knit piece can fairly well be sight-read,
it deserves a decent fingering for a perfect performance.

...I am afraid I soon will be chased by the FBFI***...

Very nice work on the Ireland sonatina 1st movement. Only the 2nd to do, and not much confusion there. This sonatina is surely one of Ireland's choicest morsels.

Very interesting fingering solutions to the thorny Stravinsky movement, Alfor.
Not a piece that I like to play, but feel I must play it occasionally as it is by Stravinsky, after all.

Thanks for posting.

. . . De nada!
Please try to understand the second movement as a marionette's dance and
prolong this feeling to the final movement . . . maybe you will then be able to
appreciate it a bit more . . .
(taking it as a stylized and alienated rococo piece).

...thorny Stravinsky movement...

Sorry, but I misunderstood the word "thorny". It is completely apt to describe the movement!
I mixed it up with "angry, furious, irate"
I should have realized that it is related to the German word "dornig" and not to the word "zornig"!
