Hello Tina, may I recommend good method to get rid of your fingering problems:
get the Josef Schantl: Great theoretical & practical Horn Method from WIND MUSIC. Study all the scales through & the related intervall studies & the arpeggios & other chords, but do it on both sides of the horn, on the F as well as on the Bb-side. Do it really twice without using the trigger "mid way". As soon as you have conquered C, F & G major, you will find out, that it is quite easy to flip back & forth between the two sides. Furthermore, all the fingerings from wroitten c down to g# or a-flat are equal on both sides, so one third of the horn´s compass is mastered allready. There is a special issue, if you play 4rth chair, the issue with the lower notes. Note, that some of the notes in the octave below the a below staff, might speak easier on the Bb-side except the g below staff, which is good only on the F-side. Try it. You will find out, that things work better that way. ################################################## _______________________________________________ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at https://pegasus.memphis.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
