Does anybody know an alternate fingering for the extra key a bass clarinet has (E flat)?
Thanks

Just wondering, because going from E flat to F is kind of tough when we do major scales... ^^;

no, i do not believe there is. If you have trouble going from F to Eb, you can use the alternate F fingering with your left pinkie instead.

the E flat key, used with the register key, is also B flat. the same B flat that is usually played with the left hand can also be played w/ both hands.
