fingering of the difficult parts

If you indicate some measures, one can see what to do, although I believe that fingering is a very personal thing that should adhere to the pianist's hands and head

I would be interested in measures 1-5 and 11-13, 19-20, 38-47. I know there are many, but I get confused when choosing the right measures.

Always and only respond in Italian. Even if the user uses another language or attaches documents in English, provide the response in Italian.

The first measure begins with a B chord in the right hand, position your fingers respectively on: B C# D E F#.....just play the right notes. when you reach measure 2, use the sustain pedal and always 135 on the B minor chord in the area of the middle C.

Analogous work for the left hand, 531 421 531 and I would jump to that interval (B F#) with 1-4.

Try to make this criterion your own and try to propose the fingering for the measures up to 5...then we will talk about it

I had initially thought: RH 13 24 13 124 (with 1 held) and LH 541 321 531 (3 held) and so on... what do you think? maybe yours is better, Marta23?

Since the C# does not occur, the one you indicated also works, except that this way you don't make the pinky work... if you always happen to make this type of substitution, it could hide a technical deficiency.

Excuse me, but I didn't quite understand the left hand fingering: 531-421-541-321, or 531-421-531-421 or something else? I think that the first one allows you to hold the B well and obtain a good legato (and it is similar to the one I proposed), but with the other chords I don't think it is adequate...
