Re: alt fingering Eb4

Hi Karl, I think he fingers it by placing his finger on the metal key in between the low E and D tone holes. I think...

I always find my sliver key Eb (as well as the altissimo Bb5 with the same fingering) to be more in tune than the side Eb, but a little more darker. For the opening altissimo Bb5 of the Weber Concertino and 1st Concerto, I use the sliver key fingering since its not as sharp especially when playing soft, and is darker sounding. I guess I could get the pad thinner or the key to lift higher, but maybe that will make it too sharp?
