This site here is all a woodwind player would want, from basic fingerings, to trills and tremolos, this site seems to have pretty much anything. Except for one thing. Brass fingerings. Not that I play a brass instrument myself, but all my friends do(I'm the only woodwind out of all of them), and they haven't been able to find a site anywhere near the quality of this one. I find a lot of help reading through old postings in the forums, and looking through all the interesting alternate fingerings. I believe woodwind players shouldn't be the only ones benefiting from these incredible resources.
Just a thought

this is true. you should include all instruments not just woodwinds. thought you might have to get a new title, it is a good thought. this is one of the best sites and none other comes close to this. but by saxyboys suggestion, it wold be top choice on any players list. its for the good of the players and the better for you.

ps: the woodwind and brasswind fingering guide sounds like a cool title=) just a suggestion

To emphasize what Saxy Boy said, this site is really great. The information that I learned on the forum alone has helped me very much in playing my three woodwinds. If I ever wanted to learn how to play another instrument (save french horn; I love it but its brass) i will come here first for fingerings and tips. I always recommend this site to friends who are woodwind players. Everyone on the forum is very friendly and helpful all the time too.
Woodwinds [(and even the little jealous french horn since it decided to become a member of the woodwind quintet)]are the !!BEST!! instruments ever and this site does a great job aiding players of all musical levels.

I have a backlog of charts to add to this site right now. If I can catch up on that and can round up some brass fingering charts, I will add them to the site. Thanks for the suggestion.
