In the Vierne Final to Symphony No. 1, is it still considered stylistically-correct to play the double-thirds sections completely legato, particularly in a drier acoustic?  In measures 67-76, I've worked out legato fingering and mostly avoiding substitution, but, in the right hand, it seems very awkward to use the fingering I've devised, and I end up with some tension in the hand and wrist after working on it.  I do have quite small hands, but I'm not sure if that has any bearing.

I've fingered the right-hand at measure 69 as:

4 5 4 3 4
2 1 2 1 2

And then the right-hand in measures 73-74 as:

4 3 4 3 4 3 5 4 5   (4) 3
1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 3-4 1  2

Thanks for any thoughts,

Gregg Bailey
