    Hi Johnny,
    Thanks again and again for your tips, lessons, music. videos…
    I really think I improve my practice with your material.
    I have a question about chromatic scale :
    For alto how to you play B flat ? With the right hand lateral key or with the small left hand key ?
    Thanks for your answer.

      Christian, I don’t use either of the two you mentioned…the easiest fingering (for me) within the chromatic scale for Bb is to play the A with the right hand and lower side key with left hand.

      I have an understanding problem Johnny : did you mean “is to play the A with the left hand and lower side key with right hand.” ?

        I am sure that is what Johnny meant,” A” with left hand and lower side key with right hand. Unless Johnny knows a way
        to play the Bb the way he is describing?

          sorry my mistake…yes I mean the the A with the left hand fingering and the right hand playing the lower side key which is my most used way to finger a Bb….especially with in the chromatic sale
