 Re: Throat G to F# Advice Needed

I believe that GBK stated a few years ago that the preferred descending chromatic fingering is to "flip" between first finger F# and thumb F natural.

Since then, I've found that, depending upon what comes before or after that using alternative fingerings for both the bottom space and top line F/F# is the way to go.

Try the Chris P exercise, but play the F#/Gb with the left forefinger.

Work it an octave higher and play the F#/Gb with the right middle finger.

Start slow, there's a lot of habit burned into your playing.
