Bb Fingerings for Saxophone

The saxophone has several fingerings for middle and high Bb. Each has its advantages and disadvantages depending on the context of the surrounding notes.

Click here to download a short piece for saxophone, “Waltz for the Bb Brothers.” (Corny name, I know.) I specifically wrote this piece to show the context in which each fingering works best.

The PDF document also includes a fingering chart with the different Bb fingerings.
