Hey everyone.

I've lost my fingering table and Ive forgotten the fingering for high E (you know that one that's really hard to play)

Could someone post the fingering here or give me a link to website with the fingering.

Um, that previous post confused me...

But it's thumb, first and second finger on both hands and e flat key is optional as always.

Sorry! I always hate it when people make things more complicated then they actually are, and there I go confusing people again.

Lifting your pinky brings the pitch down, it's more in tune most times. I suggest you bail on the pinky thing.

Just relax, don't force anything... don't feel like you're working hard to get the E out. It's nothing after awhile.

I can play it alright. I just keep forgetting the fingering. redface
Though is it just me or is high E harder then high F?

Tis not just you. 3nodding High E and F sharp are the gnomes of flute playing, meaning, they're the trickiest notes to get to speak. That's why they have those cheaty split E mechanisms and such.

Ah, didn't know that, might depend on the flute, though. I don't notice any difference when I use pink and when I don't, on the notes that it's optional, anyway.

I find trouble with high B natural, but B flat I have no trouble with.

For me it's not a matter of getting the note out, it's refining it and making it soft and in tune >________
