Life got in the way. <br /><br />But when he says fundamental register tones with octave pressed, he's referring to, for example, playing the fingering for the F# second octave, but through oral cavity adjustments making it sound an octave below as F# first octave. So even though the notes are moving chromatically, what's happening with your embouchure and oral cavity is very different between the adjacent half steps. Let me know if this helps.

As Caravan (strange name) mentions these exercises are to be done with the octave key pressed, so why the 'T'? When you get to the second line - F, F# - it says normal fingering and then a 'T' again, yet the first fingering (if with an octave key) would also have the 'T' .... if you follow me? <br /><br />I have a version with a different text preceding the exercises also.<br /><br />Best - Joejoeshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15282590943897598903noreply@blogger.com
