Subj: [kl] Alternate Fingerings on Eb
Date: Mon, 24 May 2004 21:40:56 -0400

<*Alternate* fingerings in the altissimo range of the Efer? I thought

Yep. Sometimes Eb players need to "improvise" fingerings in the altissimo,
to compensate for the instrument's failings. That makes for fun times when
going back to Bb.
