Double Bass How to approach many runs

[AGCurry]

Sorry, but that fingering for the 1st measure of the third line isn't helping your problem. Go to 1 on the A#, 4 on the G, 2 on F#, 1 on the F dotted 8th.

Yeah... those aren't my fingerings... but I've tried all sorts of fingerings, with equal lack of success.

You could play the 1rst and 3rd of the 16th note runs -- I've taken that way out several times on different passages!

I've even tried eliminating the first two 16th notes from each run. I'm just not good enough.
