“Taking the B in the left hand in mm. 124 and 126 keeps the right hand in a more compact position. This redistribution for the final line eliminates the extreme crowding of Price’s distribution. The two-note slurs can still be observed with this fingering.”

“I redivide the notes between the hands several times in this section. The hand crossing in m. 37 is awkward as written, so I take the upper C-sharp in left hand. In m. 39, the top notes of the lower staff can be taken in the right hand, and the Cs can be taken as an octave in the left hand in m. 40.”
