Re: Resonance Fingerings and Scales

Good question, Carl. When I was working on an MBA our favorite answer to every question was , "Well, it depends". So I will now draw deeply upon my degree in business to provide this answer: It Depends. Since the resonance fingerings are a bit awkward if you are moving quickly, just use the standard fingering on faster scales. I use the resonance fingerings only on longer notes since one cannot tell the difference in tone when notes go by fast. I would suggest to you that your slow scale practice should use the resonance fingerings so they become automatic in such a way you can chose to use it or not "depending" on the musical situation.
