This is the fingering I sent to Leonard. Any thoughts, improvements? Is it clear? __________________________________________________________________
In the 4th measure, 2nd beat, prepare by fingering the c-a with the index finger, then the d-f with either index sliding up to "d" or middle finger, (I prefer sliding index) but little finger on "f" fret 3rd course in any case and KEEP IT DOWN! Last beat of that measure, the "c" fret, 2nd course, under the first * top line, use index finger. KEEP THE INDEX FINGER ON THAT 2nd COURSE! Next measure, slide the index to the "d" fret, middle finger takes the low 6th course B flat, "d" fret, little finger "f" fret, 3rd course- where it has been since the last measure. Keep middle finger and little finger in place as you slide index finger BACK to 2nd course "c" fret, then back up to "d" fret for last beat/chord of measure 5. Next line, complete position change and back to more normal fingerings. Hope this is clear, it may feel a touch counter-intuitive or weird at first, but it works- and I can't see a smoother way. Please let me know how this works for you, and if I've explained adequately.
