I remember a while back someone mentioned Gino Cioffi didn't use the Ab/Eb key for the high D in this - on large bore Selmers you don't need to as D is fine without it.

Watch from 0:15 onwards in his solo (he starts the ascent at around 0:55):

Just realised he didn't need to open it for the high E either.

Vic Firth on timps! I never knew that!
