Re: Resonance fingerings and overblowing

Author: kdk ★2017

The altissimo harmonics for the throat fingerings - F#(4), G, G#, A and Bb don't necessarily need to be that flat. If they were, they couldn't be used as alternate fingerings for C#5, D5, D#5 and E5.

I haven't tried any of those fingerings as altissimo alternates with resonance fingers added, but I would intuitively have thought adding those fingers would flatten the pitches or drive them up to even higher harmonics. I'll have to try them later.
