I've been playing basson for about a month and I'm having SO much trouble playing the high G but i can get all of the other notes above that... Then I have the Gb, i do the correct fingering but the sound splits, I've tryed using an alternate fingering that i figured out by pushing only the the first finger on the right hand but i'm having so much trouble with that note... PLEASE HELP! I can also use some tips... And, does anyone know how to make bassoon reeds?
btw. What does the upper left thumb thumb key on the wing joint do?

amke sure you 1/2 hole the first finger and you dont hold the whisper key down while playing the high notes

For high g do play the whisper key and half-hole first finger of left hand. For fsharp,no whisper key,no half-hole just 2nd and third fingers of left hand,bottom eflat key with little finger and then with the right hand 1st and 2nd fingers plus bflat with thumb. I know another 20 fingerings if this doesnt work!! Brian

If you have 5 left thumb speaker keys the very top one is for high d and csharp and for some high trills. Brian.
