 Half Holing?
Author: Kelly 
Date:   2001-03-12 15:41

I had always been taught (from fingering charts and band directors) that to play in the altissimo the first finger on the left hand was all the way off the hole. One of my friends plays them half holed, and I tried it. The notes came out so much easier than before! I am having a lot of trouble playing quick passages like that though. What are your thoughts on half holing versus not? If anyone does half hole, how high do you go up like that, or are there different notes you would play half holed? Thanks for any replies!
