Bettoney Silver clarinet mechanism

Author: MIchael Kincaid

I got my metal Bettoney back from being repaired and there is a mechanism for the left hand
that I have never seen. The key that is used to play C-sharp (one line below the staff) can
be used to play E-flat (first staff line ); you just play the usual E (thumb/first finger) then add the
left little finger for E-flat. Has anyone heard of this? By the way, John Butler of Intrument Restoration
( a sneezy.org sponsor) did a fantastic job on my clarinet.--it is gorgeous and plays well too! I couldn't
be happier with the results. Michael
