FINGERING

Be consistent with the fingering. Although it is good to experiment with different fingerings in the beginning stages of preparation, once you find a fingering that works you should avoid changing it.

Test your fingering at fast tempos to make certain your choice will work up to tempo before completely settling on a particular fingering.
