Subj: Re: [DR-L] Bassoon trill alternate fingering
Date: Fri, 11 Feb 2005 15:39:39 -0500

Hello David (et al) If you add the low C# key to the forked fingering and
open the oral cavity a little and practice this trill, it will usually
improve with time. An extra Ab/Bb trill key arrangement is much more sured,
of course. I likie best the Schreiber Prestige and Heckel (if ordered on a
new instrument) version: it connects the low Bb alt trill key by a pin to
the low G key. When the mechanism is in the ON position, one only has to
finger Ab and then lift right hand 3, and pinky. Good luck! Gerald Corey
