 miraculous fingerings

I'm busy preparing "The Miraculous Mandarin" 1st clarinet part. Does anybody have any good fingering ideas for:
1. Db-Bb tremolo at figure 24, and
2. The rapid D#-B sextuplet before figure 25

Your suggestions will be most welcome!

For the Db6 to Bb5 trill: Play the Bb with the traditional RH side Bb key, then remove the thumb/register key and second finger of the left hand, while keeping the first finger on with the Bb key open.

For the rapid D#6 to B5 sextuplet (if I am thinking of the same passage, as I do not have the music in front of me): play the D# as an overblown throat Ab4...GBK

For that Db6 to Bb5 trill, it might be easier to use the left hand fork fingering of the Bb so that you keep it in one hand. Of course, if you are more familiar with the right hand fingering of that note, use it.

For the Db-Bb I would, as usual, agree with GBK, but for the D#-B I think I use just the thumb and either the top 1 or 2 trill keys for the D# and an ordinary B.
Good luck
