I'm playing 1st on Symphony No. 3 for Band by Giannini, Part IV. Starting in Part 9, there are 8 measures with one beat worth of trill, every other beat. I'm not quite sure what to trill to on several of the notes. For instance, there's a third line B and it says to trill to sharp. Does that mean to trill to B# or to C#? Then I trill from third space C# to another sharp...D#? Then fourth line D# to a natural, E natural I assume, but don't know if my assumption is correct. Then fifth space E to a sharp, I assume F#? Then fifth line F# to another sharp, I assume G#. Then the G right above the bars to a flat...would that be to Ab? Then a G# above the bars to another sharp...A#? Then A# above the lines to a natural, so to B? Then a fourth bar D# and it just says tr above it (no additional sharp or flat sign), so would I trill to E#? And, finally, a B above the lines to a sharp...would that be to C#?
I've been told that you trill a whole step above whatever the note is. Is that correct? If it is, then if you add "tr#" you would trill three half steps above the note. And, if it says "trb" you would trill one half step above the note.
I sure hope this makes sense. I have no doubt this will be part of our audition in the coming week and it would sure be nice to do it correctly!
As ever, thanks for your help!
