RE: Leblanc altos

As I mentioned above low Eb up a fourth to Ab and Ab back down to low Eb are difficult without the left hand Eb/Ab key. But other than these two examples absence of this key shouldn't be much of a problem. But still the extra Eb/Ab key should be standard equipment on all clarinets with a low Eb. My Leblanc LL soprano is equipped with this extra key and I find that it occasionally comes in handy, particularly when playing in keys with lots of sharps. But some people would prefer to slide one finger to the next note rather than using the little finger of the other hand to get the next note.
