Subj: [kl] Fingering for Midsummer...
Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2002 12:37:00 -0400

Dear list,

In Midsummer Nights Dream, I have often used the full
midline B in the opening sequence. I recently have
switched to using the trill fingering for that
particular note. The sound quality isn't as good, but
it doesn't "pop" when playing it and the transition is
much smoother. Who here uses this fingering? Is it
acceptable in an orchestral audition?

Thanks a bunch!
