Hi, I just wanted to ask about how you would trill from the F (above the staff, altissimo) to the G. Thanks!!

If it is from F natrual to G natrual, I would trill first by placing my fingers and sounding the F (quickly placing my first finger of my left hand down to close the top hole) or use long F. Then trill to an overblown B fingering, which is thumb register key, and first finger. Long F is too many fingers to move, but has the index down to start with, So i would stil trill the normal F fingering, but Start with long F if it was a natrual preceding fingering.

"Wiggle" your second finger leaving your third and little in place. Should work.

The "standard" method of trilling altissimo F to altissimo G is to play the F as thumb, register key, 2nd finger, 3rd finger, and little finger (i.e. the fingering typically used in the chromatic scale for this note). Trill simply by moving the 2nd finger up and down.
There is a very nice trill chart in the middle of both the Rubank Advanced Method Books (Volume I and Volume II). While not comprehensive, it shows the most typical combinations used when trilling notes. It is set up as a trill chart so that if a certain combination doesn't work, it isn't shown.
