... ooh, Drew, the 'short' or 'military' or 'open' C# / Db option ... have i got a tale for all of you
-- i first tried this fingering with my European trained teacher, he smiled and said 'glad you know that one, use C or Eb key to dampen it down a bit' (it's very sharp on my oboe), and then later when i tried it with my North American trained teacher she chided me and said 'that's not a real note!'
... so I'm very happy indeed to see another North American mentioning it in a positive context :-)
