Re: Crusell fingering issue

Sally,

The tempo for the Pastorale should be about eighth note = 112. This should give you ample time to use Chris' first suggested solution, if you prefer -- i.e, finger the C initially with the left hand but immediately switch to the right. Think of the note as two tied sixteenths (not tongued) where you play the first with your left hand and the second with your right, then play the Ab with the normal fingering.

I would recommend you give both solutions a try then choose the one that gives you the best intonation and most consistent timbre on your instrument.

Best regards,
jnk
