About this chart

How to read it

Every note the chart covers is on the staff, lowest to highest, with its fingering underneath. Filled keys are pressed; open ones stay up. Smaller diagrams under a fingering are alternates.

Notes with two names

A♯ and B♭ are the same note, with the same fingering. The chart writes the flat on the staff and the sharp name under it, so you can find either one.

When to use an alternate

Alternates make some note changes smoother or fix a note that sits out of tune on your instrument. Learn the main fingering first, then ask your director which alternate fits the passage you are working on.
