Re: Slurring low E flat to B

Conservatoire, thumbplate or dual system, the low Eb-B slur would still be done in the same manner, though thumbplate systems won't have a banana key, and some ring key conservatoire systems may not either.

If you add the low B key for resonance on some lower register RH notes, you wouldn't want a cor with a low B-C link fitted.

Cor with low B-C link: http://english.moennig-adler.de/pitcms/.holzblasinstrumente_engl/hauptordner1/e1_o4/bilder1/w180D.jpg (it's the right angled piece with the adjusting screw below the Eb pad cup tail)

Cor without: http://www.howarth.uk.com/pic.aspx?pic=./wo/HowarthXLEH-BWCon.jpg&pid=35253
