Seconded! Alfred, until seeing your fingering, I've never had anything that would work for me......so I've not played this etude often because of the fingering issues, I've now got no excuse!phikfy wrote:Thanks for the Op.39 no.1. Love this piece and your fingering is very practical.

You are welcome!fleubis wrote:Thank you Alfred for R's Op.39,9 .... and a nice set of fingering it is, too. While much seems obvious to me, I have found a few surprises which simplify---one of the great benefits of the Alfor Edition.
The NYPL has a copy of this (and hundreds of other rare Soviet scores) that may as well not exist at all, since they keep them in an off-site storage facility and don't allow them to circulate beyond the confines of the actual library (better pack up your piano for the visit!). If I felt like the librarians working there were actually doing anything with this material (i.e. scanning them for posterity), I'd be less dismissive, but I've little doubt that they're being typical modern Americans and ignoring it completely, rather aiming more effort towards figuring out how to transform the main library branches into the over-sized internet cafes that the public so desperately need.vvedenskij wrote:looks like Samuil Feinberg's Rhapsody on Kabardino-Balkarian Themes has been posted on ISMLP by Emiles Mern ...
what a find, quite a few people have been trying to track this down,
Thank you!
