It's a bit awkward, but for middle staff B-natural, if you play it with the normal fingering but also add the throat A key, it speaks a little bit better.
I agree! When I was in highschool I had to play a reference concert A to tune the band up (kinda like an oboe in an orchestra) but my clarinet was always cold an my B was usually flat, so I'd use the A key too just like this! You can also sharper/clarify middle B-natural by touching the secont-to-top trill key with the base knuckle of your index finger. It's mega awkward, but desperate time call for desperate measures I guess :) Thanks for watching!

I just became a subscriber and I like your style.But the background cover music is so loud and distracting I found it difficult to concentrate on the narrative. Perhaps leave it out altogether as the message is technical and requires close attention. Your presence is pleasing , your techniques most interesting….don’t need the rest. Cheers from Australia
Play regular Bb (left hand thumb and index). Then experiment with depressing either/both of the two top trill-keys. Some combination should make a decent C.

Amazing lesson, 👏🏿 👏🏿👏🏿....great channel, amazing content @Learn Clarinet Online
Thanks! I really should make another 100 or so lessons like this. 2-3 minutes, with playing demos, no rambling...
@@liamclarinet most definitely...the views and subscriptions demonstrate that...go for it, you and your cahnnel are an inspiration 😉 (endorsed)...
For clarion B to trill to C# just add the second from the top side key.
it works, but mega-flat for most clarinets. I use the side-key fingering if pitch isn't a big deal :)
@@liamclarinetI'm playing Castelnuovo-Tedesco sonata and your fingering is a life saver!
my pleasure! @@egeneus which fingering in particular? if you record and upload your performance, I'd love to hear it!
@@liamclarinet The one you showed the last. Sounds much cleaner and homogeneous with surrounding notes.
I'll record the excerpt a little bit later!

Message received. Future tutorials will be easier on the ears!
Is there an alternative fingering for faster 16th notes when the notes are Bb,Ab,Bb,C?
Play regular Bb (left hand thumb and index).
Then experiment with depressing either/both of the two top trill-keys. Some combination should make a decent C.
can you do alternatives fingerings for contra alto?
scroll down to "Alternate Fingering Chart for Boehm-System Alto, Bass, and Contrabass Clarinet" here: www.wfg.woodwind.org/clarinet/
Awesome lesson, "nuff respect" for doing what you do, you're an inspiration, great channel @learnclarinetonline
Thank you, I appreciate your kind words. I really should make some more videos that aren't Shorts...
