BRAHMS | Variations on a Theme by Robert Schumann, Op. 9: mm. 176–77
 
Piano fingerings for Variations on a Theme by Robert Schumann, Op. 9, by Johannes Brahms

“With this redistribution, the pianist doesn't need to jump around or arpeggiate the right hand. Plus, playing the F-sharp octaves on the 3rd and 5th beats with the right hand provides emphasis to the strong beats of the fortissimo ending, creating a nice audible shape.”
