 Re: Bridge key problems?

Hello Bob,

You just have to realize that there is only one difference between F5 and D6...the first finger of your left hand. (yes...I know that the pinky pushes the Eb/Ab key...that's not really a factor.)

So the first finger of your right hand (the apparent problem) first moves to the Bb lever, and then right back where it came from. So I have worked to let this be as easy as it should be.

GENERALLY speaking...the Bb sliver key should be removed from the clarinet. (yes it does have slightly different pitch and color, but...)

Yes, I do use 1/1 every once in a while. Usually not, however.

Forget the Bb major chord, look at another arpeggio: If you had an Eb major chord and had to move from clarion Bb5 to altissimo Eb6 and back you would be executing essentially the same motion as I have described above for F5 Bb5 D6. And you wouldn't be able to use the 1/1 Bb...or do you?

I might also add that my right fingers curve down as much as my left fingers do. So I finger F5 with my finger and touch the Bb lever at the same time.
