Ok, I haven`t done this trill in a while, but I do believe for that one, there`s a little key on the...right? And you just trill with that key. Sorry if that`s incorrect, I don`t have my clarinet on me, lol.

Play the B and then take away the thumb as if playing a second space F#.

i also have a trilling question, how do you trill from mid-staff C# to the next lowest G#? we have this trimelo in Star Wars and its super hard.

For the C#-G#, I would keep my right hand down and just trill using the left hand. I think I know what piece you are doing...the one with all the freakish page turns?

hex yes its the ones with page turns almost splitting notes, hehe. keeping your right hand down doesn`t do much, if you want to get it to soundl ike 2 notes you gotta do it super slow, then it doesn`t sound like a trill

You can also (and probably Dmitri`s is easier, although I`ve never tried it) use the G sharp key (on the left) while still holding the B natural fingering. Be sure to do it quickly, as it doesn`t make for a good C sharp sound, but it works if the passage is fast enough.

Joann, if I`m not mistaken, playing clarion B whilst adding the Ab key will produce a D natural. I would play the clarion B natural, then add side keys 3 & 4 (of the four side keys grouped together, 3 & 4 are the bottom two)
