Does anyone understand the oboe fingering chart? The fingering scheme has no picture and I have no clue what the B key is. Can anyone help me?

Renee,

Did you look at the "Fingering Scheme for Oboe" page, and scroll down to "Left Hand Little Finger (Pinky) Keys"?

The B key is operated by the left hand pinky. There are three keys (sometimes 4 on intermediate/professional models) located on the top left of the middle joint. (The right hand pinky needs to engage the C key when playing low B.) The B key is narrow and located in the middle of the three keys. The alternate left hand fingering for E flat is the first bigger key. The outer key is used for low B flat.

Does anyone have a fingering chart that they can e-mail me? I'm just learning how to play the obe and a fingering chart would be very useful! Thanx

What I meant was, WFG doesn't have a picture to go along with the fingering scheme, so I don't understand what they're talking about. I understand that the left hand is the one closest to your mouth, but I don't know where the trill keys are. Please explain the chart to me someone.
