About this tool

This chart isolates the left hand for C Major: the pinky opens on the tonic, walks down through fingers 4-3-2-1, and the third finger crosses over the thumb to reach A before the pattern repeats a step higher into the next octave.

The left hand rarely gets the same attention as the right, yet in C major it carries the same clean, black-key-free line — a good scale for building the habit of crossing over smoothly instead of jumping.

Isolating the left hand makes the crossover easy to hear on its own, without the right hand's rhythm covering for it; once it is smooth, open the right-hand-only chart or the full tool to bring both hands back together.

Example. C major in the right hand for one octave shows the finger numbers 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 5. The default two-octave right hand continues 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 5.

Limit. Fingerings are the stored one-octave charts for major and the three minor forms, not a custom editorial fingering you type in. The octave control is only 1 or 2.
