Guest Roffensis Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 I often use either my left or right hand, it depends. Which do others think best for page turning? R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vox Humana Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Whichever is free! But I prefer my right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Fowler Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 What a coincidence! Me too. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Using the right had requires much less body movement than turning with the left. FF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcnd5584 Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Left - definitely. It feels really funny doing it with your right hand. Best of all, is somebody else's hand.... Then you are free to concentrate on the music and not worry about other distractions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vox Humana Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 I agree with pcnd that someone else's hand is best. Whether the fingers should be at the top or the bottom is something best left to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roffensis Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Well, quite.... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I agree, and there isn't anything to get hold of in the middle. I also tend to find ring binding problematic when doing anything fast. R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R <{POST_SNAPBACK}> This would be cost-efficient, though. One employee to blow the organ, turn the pages, change registration, clean the console, maintain the organ, and why not play it as well. A modern, up-to-date management. Pierre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MM <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I doubt it, last I heard of her she had a terrible accident when Mavis caught her trying to tend a split leather gusset. She disappeared without trace once her bloomers got caught in the wind control valve. Edna von Klinkerhoffen used to turn pages by pushing her chest against the music, leaving her hands free. It used to leave red raw marks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
