If I`m slurring from G# to A I use 2 for G# and open for A. If I need to play G# loudly with trumpets I use 23' (always on Bb horn). Wes Hatch _www.weshatchhorns.com_ (http://www.weshatchhorns.com) In a message dated 8/22/2011 4:25:33 P.M. Central Daylight Time, kenha...@verizon.net writes:
1) 23 on f side; either 2 or 23 on Bb side depending on the situation 2) used to be hard and fast 3rd space C - while this is still my default, I have been using more Bb in recent years to help certain passages with intonation, ease of fingering, blend, etc. Ken Hawes Hi all. I'm doing a little, informal and totally unscientific survey: (1) What fingering do you prefer to use most of the time for high G#/Ab ? 1a Fingering on F horn: 23 1b. on Bb horn: 23 (2) At what point do you like to switch from F horn to Bb horn side, when playing an F/Bb double horn? Second line G Thanks!
