I am a beginner with the sax and I have looked thru' the fingering scheme on this site. I must say it is very helpful. However, it is not clear as to how the right hand side keys should be operated. Can any kind soul out there give me some instructions? Any will be appreciated.

What do you mean by how they should be operated? If you mean what I think you mean I use the palm of my hand because it is easily reachable.

Use the left edge of your right hand.

If you're talking about the three key that are right on top each other down by your left palm then the very bottom is a B flat key (an A+the bottom side key=A# which is the same as B flat. The second is an alternate C key. If you play a B and the second side key you get a C. The top on is used in your higher notes. You know that high D is octive key and first right palm key. D# is D plus the top left plam key. Then E is the first and second right palm keys with the top left palm key. Finally, F is all right palm keys and top left palm key. Hope it helps! ~Ellington's The Best!!~
