The Fingering Editiontries to publish without special scientific ambitions a standard text of piano pieces but give them a systematical fingering. Like in orchestras a partition will be adapted to the proper use and is like a basis for the amateur as well as for the professional pianist. It wants to be adapted for personal reasons because every hand is different but the text remains "set-up"!There are only editions of single pieces. The patent zig-zag-folding and the 160 g heavy paper makes possible to fold up four or more pages on the piano or turn pages in a normal way like a book: With a little exercise everybody will have an advantage with this. Never fold against the original direction because this may damage the scotch tape. For musical reasons often four-measure-periods are put in one line and between the lines there is enough place to place the fingerings above the upper and below the lower system. Thus mostly there are less than six note-systems on every page and pieces have a few more pages than in standard editions but the fingering edition has a great clearness for conscious reading of the music. For the basic understanding of the "fingering language" of Wolfgang Ellenberger it is necessary to study the thorough essay "fingering for piano playing" (ISBN 3-929056-01-1). The prices are relatively high but the zig-zag folding and the high value paper make it necessary. Think about your immense saving of time and nerves to construct a perfect fingering which you gain for practising. It is similar to computer software: You pay a license to have the permission for personal use... All titles which are are availiable are listed and can be ordered over this homepage´s shopping basket or all book-stores because they have ISMN-numbers. But it might be easier to order them directly at CCC enclosing a banc cheque (including 10 DM for international shipping)
