Ken:

just tried...hard to do.

Bruce:

Thanks for the fingering...could've sworn I tried that. Yes, not the finest intonation fingerings, as Ken said, but plenty of trill fingers on the clarinet leave something behind regarding their underlying note's beauty and pitch, in exchange for ease.

(e.g. throat tone trills, Clarion (just above the treble staff) B to C# with two lower side trills or left thumb play, Chalameau (below the treble staff) F# to G# keeping left pinky down, same for Clarion full fingered C# to D#

...the price we pay I suspect.

...have to see if a bis key causes my left pointer Chalameu E and Clarion (just above the treble staff) B to miss fire as Eb and Bb respectively.

Chris: nice idea...only wish I had your bench skills!
