 sax trill fingering
Author: phil hash

What is the proper fingering for a high c-d trill (above the staff) on saxophone? The fingering charts I have seen suggest the use of the Eb palm key but this does not seem right. Thanks for any suggestions you have.

I don't play sax myself, but the chart on this site suggests that the C-D trill you are looking at is Thumb + 2nd Finger Left Hand and then trill the E side key.

I play Sax. The trill from C to D is best with the Eb palm key. I know it sounds wrong but if you do it fast enough it sounds right.
