So, I'm a wee bit clumsy when it comes to making my left hand fingers move quickly, or even in unison with my right hand fingers for that matter, in order to achieve the sounds so prevalent in NAF music.
Except for accidentally learning how to play pool left-handed, and a few other habits I developed while having a broken right arm, my left hand might as well be a foot attached to the wrist.
Does the non-dominant hand finger dexterity come around, or is it something you must innately have?

Hang in there Keldar! It will get better with time as freckledsophie said. When I first started I can remember saying to myself "How in the World do they Play that Fast without the Flute popping out of their Hands?

You will surely get the Hang of it shortly with Practice.

Many Blessings...Robert

I've just got to know...how does one "accidentally" learn to play pool left-handed?

I really don't know........that's why I have to call it an accident.
Sometime during my early 20's, someone who knew me as being a right handed individual, asked me why I was shooting pool left-handed. I argued that I wasn't, since I was using my right hand to aim the stick, and my left hand to thrust. After observing other known right handers, I discovered I was shooting left-handed all along.
Who knew???

Let's see...I hope you don't drone in your own drool. You know, there are six holes on that pool table. Maybe you could just pick it up and--well, it would make a heck of a bass flute, wouldn't it. Reach might be a bit long.
