## Using A Clarinet Fingering Chart

When you look at the clarinet, one of the first things you'll notice is it has a lot of keys. The clarinet changes pitch by opening and closing tone holes. These can be closed by using the pads of your fingers or through the use of mechanical keys to cover the hole. There are many ways to make the same pitch using different combinations of keys, which is where a fingering chart comes in handy. 

On the clarinet, there are two times you should consider looking for an alternate fingering: 
1. During a fast and technical passage where the fingering combinations are difficult. 
2. When a note is out of tune. 

In both cases, make sure you practice with a [tuner](https://theonlinemetronome.com/instrument-tuner) and listen for the tone quality. 

## How To Hold The Clarinet

Make both your hands into relaxed "C" shapes. Sometimes beginning players will have their hand collapse the "C" shape. This will slow down your technique. 

You'll also want to make sure you are always using the pads of your fingers. This is the best way to make sure you are completely covering the tone hole. Not covering it completely will cause notes to be out of tune. 

### **Right Hand Position**

- Put right thumb knuckle just under the thumb rest. 
- Place the pads of your fingers on the keys. The pad is the soft, fleshy part with your fingerprints on it. 
- Your index finger, middle finger, and ring finger should cover the tone holes. 
- Your pinkie finger should hover over the pinky keys. Avoid hooking your pinky under the keys to help support the weight of the instrument. If you have a hard time supporting the weight of the clarinet, consider purchasing a neck strap. 
- When you lift your fingers off the keys, try to keep them low over the keys. Again, this will help with fast technique.

### **Left Hand Position**

Place the pads of your index, middle, and ring fingers over the tone holes.
Your thumb should be near the tone hole. If you imagine the tone hole as a clock, your knuckly should be at the 7:30 or 8:00 position. 

## **Types Of Clarinets**

The basic fingering chart we show here is for the b-flat clarinet, but there are many other clarinets in the larger clarinet family. 

- Piccolo clarinet in A♭
- Soprano clarinets in E♭, D, C, B♭, A and G
- Basset clarinet in A
- Basset horn in F
- Alto clarinet in E♭
- Bass clarinet in B♭
- Contra-alto clarinet in EE♭
- Contrabass clarinet in BB♭

It can be helpful to have a [fingering chart](https://theonlinemetronome.com/fingering-charts) when you are beginning a new instrument. The trumpet is like most brass instruments in that you use valves to change pitch. I've always found it helpful to start to learn fingering through [scales](/blogs/16/major-scales). This will help you get comfortable with fingerings in a given key.

Once you have the basics, go to real music and try to play through a passage. When you encounter a note you don't know look at your fingering chart. Take a pencil and write the fingering under the note. Practice the passage slowly so your fingers can get a feel for the passage. Once you feel comfortable (usually after three times through the passage), erase the written fingering. Play through the passage a few more times slowly and see if you remember the fingering. If you forget, write the fingering back in.

## How To Hold The Trumpet

### **Left-hand placement**
Start with the ring finger of your left hand and place it inside the slide ring of the third valve. Then take your middle and index finger and wrap them around the third valve casing. These two fingers will support the trumpet's weight. Finally, take your thumb and place it in the ring of the first-valve slide. Your pinky should be relaxed and rest on the valve casing under the third valve slide.

Your left hand will need to be firm to support the trumpet's weight, but be mindful not to let it become *tense*. Try to maintain as relaxed a posture as possible and avoid tension creeping up your left arm. 

### **Right-hand placement**
Form a backward letter "C" with your right hand. Place the index finger on the first valve, your middle finger on the second, and your ring finger on the third. Try to keep your fingerprint on the valve. This will help keep the hand relaxed. The pinky finger should rest in the pinky hood and the thumb should wrap around the first valve casing. 

A note on the pinky: Be careful that you don't use this to create pressure on your lips. 

## Using The Thumb And Third Finger Slides
The first valve and third valve on the trumpet have rings attached to them. This is so you can easily move them when playing certain fingering combinations, like 1 & 3. If you don't "kick out" the slide when playing, the note will be sharp. **A sharp note is as bad as a wrong note.** It will sound equally as bad to the audience, so consider adjusting the slides as part of the "fingering." 

To practice getting these notes in tune, play through a passage and stop and hold on the note that uses a fingering combination that requires you "kick out" the slide. Look at a [tuner](https://theonlinemetronome.com/instrument-tuner) and see how much you need to adjust the slide position to get the note in tune. Take a mental note of where your slide needs to be. Repeat the passage, try to quickly snap to the slide position, and freeze on the note again. Repeat this process until you can get the note in tune right away. 

Keeping the slides well-greased will ensure that you can easily move the slides.

## How To Use A Fingering Chart
It can be helpful to have a fingering chart when you are beginning a new instrument. The french horn is like most brass instruments in that you use valves to change pitch. What makes the french horn more challenging is the number of alternate fingerings, both thanks to its overtone series and having a b-flat side to the instrument.

I've always found it helpful to start to learn fingering through [scales](/blogs/16/major-scales). This will help you get comfortable with fingerings in a given key. 

Once you have the basics, go to real music and try to play through a passage. When you encounter a note you don't know look at your [fingering chart](/fingering-charts). Take a pencil and write the fingering under the note. Practice the passage slowly so your fingers can get a feel for the passage. Once you feel comfortable (usually after three times through the passage), erase the written fingering. Play through the passage a few more times slowly and see if you remember the fingering. If you forget, write the fingering back in. 

## How To Hold The French Horn
To use a fingering chart correctly, you have to first make sure your fingers are in the right place! To hold a french horn correctly:

### Left-Hand Placement
1. Start by making a relaxed "C" shape with your left hand. 
2. Place the index finger on your left hand on the key closest to you. This is also called the "first valve." 
3. Place your middle finger on the next key or second valve.
4. Place your ring finger on the key furthest away from you. This is the "third valve."
5. Your thumb should rest on the trigger if you are playing a double-horn, or in a ring, if you are playing a single horn. 
6. Your pinky finger should rest inside the pinky ring. 

### Right Hand Placement
The right hand is important for creating a clear tone and controlling intonation. 

1. Put your fingers together as if you are making a "karate chop." 
2. Now relax your hand so your fingers begin to gently curve. 
3. Relax your thumb so that it makes a flat surface with your index finger. This is where the weight of the horn should sit if you are holding the bell off the leg. You should feel the weight of the instrument around your knuckles.
4. The palm of your hand should be able to move freely to adjust the intonation and to easily "stop" the horn. 

## Common Alternate Fingerings For The French Horn
The French horn is one of the most challenging instruments to play because of where the performance range sits in the harmonic series. That is a fancy way of saying that the notes "feel" really close together. 

Any 1st & 2nd valve combination can be played with the 3rd valve. 
Most open valve combinations can also be played with 1st and 3rd valves.

They are alternate fingerings because they are typically less stable (meaning it is easier to miss the note and will probably be out-of-tune). It's much easier to find stable and in-tune alternate fingerings for the french horn when you play on a double horn. 

## Single, Double, and Triple French Horns
French horns come in different versions - single, double, and even triple horns. The single horn is most commonly pitched in the key of F. The double horn has the F-side of a single horn, but it also has a B-flat side.

It is easier to play in the upper register and lower register on a B-flat horn. This has to do with changes in the harmonic series, or in simple terms, it makes the notes feel further apart and more stable.

The triple horn has F, B-flat, and High F. The high F triple side doesn't make high notes easier (like an octave key), but it does make the notes more stable and easier to tune. 

## When Should You Use The Trigger On French Horn (the B-Flat Side)
There are two main reasons to use the B-flat side of the french horn. 

1. When you want to play anything above a G in the staff or below the F below the staff. For example: Playing the top-line F is much easier when using T0 (trigger + open) than it is to use the first valve on the F-horn. 
2. When the fingering on the F-side is out-of-tune. 

In the french horn fingering chart above, you will see both the F-horn recommended fingerings and the B-flat recommended fingerings (in parenthesis). 

## Reasons To Use Alternate Fingerings

There are a few reasons to use an alternate fingering on the french horn: 
1. To make the note easier to play/center. This is why we use the trigger in the high and low registers.
2. To make the note more in-tune. Sometimes you are playing the third of the chord and will want to bring the pitch down. Using a fingering that is naturally more flat could make it easier to keep in tune. Make sure you play slowly with a [tuner](https://theonlinemetronome.com/instrument-tuner) when considering which alternate fingering is best for you. 
3. To make a passage easier to play. Using the ring finger on 3rd valve can be tricky in fast passages. Finding an alternate fingering can make it easier to play fast passage cleanly.

##How To Use A Fingering Chart
It can be helpful to have a fingering chart when you are beginning a new instrument. The trumpet is like most brass instruments in that you use valves to change pitch. I've always found it helpful to start to learn fingering through [scales](/blog/16/scales). This will help you get comfortable with fingerings in a given key.

Once you have the basics, go to real music and try to play through a passage. When you encounter a note you don't know look at your fingering chart. Take a pencil and write the fingering under the note. Practice the passage slowly so your fingers can get a feel for the passage. Once you feel comfortable (usually after three times through the passage), erase the written fingering. Play through the passage a few more times slowly and see if you remember the fingering. If you forget, write the fingering back in.

## What is a mellophone?
A mellophone is a brass instrument that is considered the marching version of a French horn. It's better suited for marching than a french horn for a couple of reasons:

1. A mellophone's bell faces forward, making it easier to project.
2. Because it is held like a trumpet, it is easier to keep stable when moving.

## French Horn vs. Mellophone
Let's look at how the mellophone and french horn are similar:

- Both the mellophone and french horn are pitched in F
- They have similar ranges, though the French Horn has a greater low register.
- They are both conical bores.
- Their tones are similar and so they serve a similar role in terms of orchestration.

But any french horn player will tell you, these are still two different instruments. Here is how the french horn is different from the mellophone:

- The mellophone looks like a large trumpet.
- It has a forward-facing bell.
- It is not as curled as a french horn.
- It uses piston valves, where most french horns use rotary valves.
- The fingerings are more similar to a trumpet's fingerings than to [French horn fingerings](https://theonlinemetronome.com/fingering-charts/7/french-horn-fingering-chart), including the need to use a slide to adjust the intonation of any third-valve combination.
- While you can use a French horn mouthpiece, a mellophone mouthpiece also exists. It is similar to a trumpet mouthpiece but larger and deeper.
- The French horn is playing with the right hand resting inside the bell. This allows the musician to make adjustments to the intonation. On the mellophone, all tuning must be done using the thumb and third-valve slide.

While they sound similar, they do not sound the exact same. I might be biased, but as a French horn player, I think the mellophone does not have as rich a tone.

## Is a mellophone easier than a french horn?
Yes. At least, that is the consensus of most French horn players. The reason the French horn is notoriously difficult is because of where its performance range sits in its overtone series. Without getting too technical, it means that many of the notes feel closer together, making it easier to miss notes. The mellophone doesnâ€™t have this issue, making it feel easier to hit and center the notes.
