Fantasy fingering

Schumann Fantasy pieces that is.

The last one. I'm playing it in the correct concert key, transposed for the Bb. (Don't tell me to get an A.)

I'm struggling with bar 16:

D#6 C#6 B5 A#5 G#5 C#5 D#5 E5

A classic little-finger problem. (Don't tell me to get a Bb with a duplicate D#5.)

One way out seems to be to play G# as R 12. 45. This is easy to finger after A# as R 1.. .5., but the tone quality is very muffled, and the piece is not so quick that I can hide this.

How do other people manage this passage?

If there are so many people on this board unwilling or unable to have a civil and balanced discussion about important issues, then I shan't bother to post here any more.

To the great relief of many of you, no doubt.
