Hello!

I was wondering if I could get some advice on fingerings for this piece,
since I am working on it while on holiday. I will give the bar numbers etc
and hope someone can help. I am using the Chester edition edited by Graham
Mackie. I will write what fingerings I am using and see if anyone can think
of any others that may be better.

Bar 36 - E flat --> F Trill?
Currently holding bottom side key and moving two top fingers

Bar 36 - B flat --> C Trill?
Playing B flat with thumb and first finger and trilling top
side key.
Sound quality is not very good though!

Bar 41 - Going from C to E Flat?
Though about taking thumb of the C and using Register Key
and side A key with first finger.

This about as far as I have got with the piece so far, but if anyone has any
other suggestions for tricky passages in the piece, please let me know.

Thanks,
Rob Bell
