C, G, D, Eb, Bb, C.

Each note is higher then the previous one and is done with the left hand. I can't find good fingering to hit these 6 keys. Any suggestions?

Note: This is for the piano.

I'm assuming they are separate notes. Fingering is 5, (3 or 2) whichever you're comfortable with) 1, 4, 2, 1. the 4th goes over the first by moving your wrist fast enough and it'll be smooth.

(N.B. 5 is little finger and 1 is thumb)

For myself I'd do this :

5 2 1 2 1 2

In that order of your notes. (Your hand crosses over btw).

Yeah, I did 5 2 1 2 1 2 at first but I think I like an-kun's variation better. It gives me better hand positioning to play the next incoming notes. FYI, I'm playing the Piano Solo - .hack/G.U. the Website background music. It's pretty shweet.

An-kun probably has the most logical. That's the one I'd go with. Go with what ever feels most comfortable with you.

*Cough*

Mine isn't logical, eh?

I'm not saying that yours isn't logical. That's where the words 'proabably' and 'most' come into play. Also, what may be logical for you may be logical for another person. I tend to think backwards sometimes. :P

I know that wasn't the best word choice.

Lol. None taken.

Hope those fingerings helped the poster. ;)

5-2-1-2-1-2 works well for someone with Rachmaninoff hands. For the rest of us, 5-2-1-4-2-1 is less painful xD

Hey, I'll take that as a compliment. :heh:
