I`m playing an amazingly difficult piece called "Red Cape Tango", which is requiring me to vigorously play both alto and soprano saxes. My soprano is brand new, and a top of the line Selmer. Yet, my alto is a Bundy student horn...needless to say, it lacks a high F# key.

Basically, my question is, how are you able to obtain the F# pitch without the available key?

Thanks,
Cristina

yeah, funny how the F# and G are harder but the A above that and above is easy as anything
