Subj: [DR-L] contrabassoon: sagging Eb
Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2003 17:11:16 -0500

I've been asked to play contra in a concert next week. I don't play contra
very often, and don't pretend to be very skilled at it.

My Eb (written 3rd space bass clef) is sagging.

Any idea how to remedy it, either through fingering (preferably), or reed
modification?

I'm using left hand 1,2, Eb key / right hand open

TIA.
