Hi,
Playing around with oboe tremolo fingerings I discovered that the A#3-C#4 / Bb3-Db4 tremolo is possible by 123B♭|123cC♯ fingering, trilling the Bb and C# keys oppositely. The website lists this combination as 'Not Feasible'. Admittedly this is not a convenient fingering option but it is not much different to the Bb3-D4 fingering listed. Surely this is also the case for the B3-D#4/Cb4-Eb4 tremolo as this tremolo is no more awkward than the B3-D4 tremolo. Is there a reason why both of these are listed as not feasible when similar tremolos are listed?
Thanks,

Hello,
The A♯3−C♯4 tremolo you found is likely listed as 'Not Feasible' due to awkwardness and inconsistent sound quality compared to other tremolos, not impossibility. The B3−D♯4 tremolo is likely excluded for similar reasons of practicality, even if Teacher Loan Forgiveness Program structurally analogous to B3−D4.
