Wow! Hand alignment is my nemesis in fast pieces and I would have never thought of doing that. I definitely have to try this. Thanks for your great videos!

This came at exactly the right time, thanks Josh!

Very good plan. It must be that it breaks the unthinking fingers doing their own thing. You have to be aware of what you are doing, that’s how the randomness helps. You have to concentrate to make sure the fingers are together and a bit of what I call brain rewiring then happens. I am certainly going to use this.

Oh also, I have performed Waldstein extensively and even won competitions with it. I can provide a little tip since you played this passage in the tutorial... at 5:06... try this fingering to avoid that "trip up" you mentioned. I start the first two groups as you do...
B-D# 1234,
(ED#EF#) 1234,
G->A# 1234
This way, it's all 1234, and you lock into the smooth rhythmic flow of it.
Then switch back to 53 for the "trills" BA# that come next.
Hope that helps. :)

I call this practicing rubatissimo.
