 Fingering Chart?
Author: TerpUMD

Pardon the possibly ever-so redundant post, but

Where can I find a complex fingering chart with not only basic fingerings, but as well as all the alternates? I know Leblanc publishes one, but are there any out there on the web which are free? Google hates me.

Thanks in advance.

As far as on-line sites, Tim Reichard's is the best:

A few "regulars" from this board (including yours truly) have contributed fingerings. Tim always welcomes new submissions...GBK

As usual, Rob, GBK gives good informatio. Just a comment, though.... You wanted "all" alternative fingerings, and there is no such chart. Tim Reichard's chart is a work in progress, because as GBK alluded, additions are made from time to time.

Also, it's best for you to use available information to develop your own chart of preferred fingerings for your own Clarinet in the Altissimo register. Not all instruments play quite the same up there.

Regards,
John

Rob...As JMcAulay said, I might suggest you develop your own personalized fingering chart.

As there are many alternates for each altissimo note (ex: more than 20 possibilities for F#6 and G#6) it can be a bit overwhelming.

Perhaps, get a copy of the Ridenour book, go through it and find the 2, 3 or 4 reliable altissimo fingerings for each note which play in tune on your set up.

Use those as your core fingerings. Add others as you see fit...GBK
