Source-scoped one-octave fingering row.
One-octave reference. Finger numbers appear only for the hand and direction combinations covered by the sources listed above.
B Major contains B, C#, D#, E, F#, G#, A#. Repeat B at the top to complete one octave. Its key signature has 5 sharps.
B major uses five black keys, while B and E remain natural. The half-step pairs are D♯–E and A♯–B. Do not add an E-sharp just because this is a sharp key: E is the fourth degree in the verified note spelling.
This left-hand version begins B–C♯–D♯–E with 4–3–2–1. The thumb therefore reaches E before finger 4 crosses to F♯. The right hand begins with its thumb on B and uses 1–2–3–1–2–3–4–5. Each hand has its own starting finger.
Suggested drill: practice the left-hand opening four notes, then connect E to F♯ using 1–4. On the return, check F♯–E with 4–1. Complete one octave before increasing the range. Keep the B-major spelling in the staff and note labels even when comparing with an enharmonic scale.
The one-octave ascending notes are B–C#–D#–E–F#–G#–A#–B. The key signature contains 5 sharps: F#, C#, G#, D#, A#. These accidentals also apply in descent.
The cited left-hand row begins 4–3–2–1 on B–C#–D#–E, then continues 4–3–2–1 on F#–G#–A#–B. Starting with finger 4 belongs to that documented grouping. Do not replace it with the C-major pattern or claim it is the only choice in all musical contexts.
This source-documented one-octave reference shows right hand ascending 1–2–3–1–2–3–4–5 and descending 5–4–3–2–1–3–2–1; left hand ascending 4–3–2–1–4–3–2–1 and descending 1–2–3–4–1–2–3–4. Read each row in playing order. These are sourced choices, not the only possible fingerings, and must not be repeated mechanically for a second octave.
Suggested drill: practice the left-hand opening four notes, then connect E to F♯ using 1–4. On the return, check F♯–E with 4–1. Complete one octave before increasing the range. Keep the B-major spelling in the staff and note labels even when comparing with an enharmonic scale.
