    I would really welcome any advice on measures 13-18 in the first movement of Mozart's C minor sonata particularly with respect to fingering in the left hand (I have experimented with 5111, 5121, 5131, leaning towards the latter) and the dotted rhythmns in the right hand. The piece is all but within striking distance for me, other than for this passage!

    Trolls and fast passages still challenge me.   Also still fighting memory even after working on all the ideas I’ve gotten thru tonebase.

       Hi Margie, memorizing is something I fight with too. Recently I have collected some ideas on youtube (Aaron Petit, Mark Morley-Fletcher) and I red a book (How to memorize Music). One big change I have done was to memorize the piece directly. You start a new piece and you start memorizing too. Then each time you practice, you practice from memory. It’s still a long way, but it works for me. 🙋‍♀️

       I hope you don't practice your trolling too much. 😉 Sorry, couldn't resist.

      For trills I found that practicing them every day with scales makes a difference over time. All finger combinations and also with held down notes.

    I hope it's OK to ask general questions not just about specific passages in pieces.

    I have large hands and fat fingers, with all the problems that come with that. I often struggle with cramped positions like thirds or chromatic chords between the black keys. Do you have any tips for that.
