hi
i'm working on "blues in thirds" by earl hines. in one rapid descending arpeggio run over one bar (first chord on first beat = gm9, second chord on third beat = c)he starts on note a, quaver(2 octaves above middle c)through g f d (eighths) and then bb g f d bb g f (eighths but played in a '7' group) to arrive on an e on the third beat ie. over the c chord. i use 4321 4321 4321 (4th on bb each time)but just can't make the third beat in time. it seems to take forever to leap over to the bb. tempo = 80 bpm. is there a faster fingering?
thanks
