Re: Change of fingering on the same note

Chris, I use the overblown B for high G almost exclusively. I'm just lazy I guess, but on my horn I'm used to it and don't really have any intonation issues. I also like the timbre a whole lot!

As far as the general topic of the posts, another place where same-note fingering changes happen is in Bulgarian wedding music, most prominently by Ivo Papazov (sometimes with an "s" instead of the "z"). This technique in that style comes from the Bulgarian flute (kaval) playing in which finger articulations are more common than tongue articulations. It also for both kaval and clarinet can produce the characteristic "ornaments" which they use to rhythmically and audibly subdivide longer notes.
