Re: The LEAST POSSIBLE EFFORT

Author: BflatNH

Was it Stein who talked about least finger movement (least effort) key/fingering selection ?

My question is when playing a piece that is somewhat difficult (for you) and key fingering can make a difference in the relative ease of playing and therefor the total quality of the piece, how do you choose between playing a note fingering that has a somewhat better intonation (e.g, 1st line Eb with LH 1+2+sliver key) and playing an easier (least possible effort) to play in note sequence (e.g. 1st line Eb fork '1 & 1") that is only slightly stuffier or out just 10 cents??

If you practice real, real, real hard, do all note fingerings (primary and alternates) become just as easy or integrated in the note pattern, or is it wise playing to use alternates if the trade-off is reasonable or am I just looking for an easy way out? Does it affect your perceived standing as a player if you use alternates often?
Thanks
