Question:

Thank you for your web site, it is very helpful.

I’d like to know the easiest way to play the Bbm scale faster. Is the Bb  note better to be played  by using the little b key with the left hand next to C or the lateral push buttom that is played with the right hand?

Thank you,

My Response:

You probably want to use the side Bb in that case.

The bis Bb wouldn’t necessarily be faster when going from Bb to C.

If you went from bis Bb to D though, it would be faster.

In certain situations  the different fingerings have an advantage. My default choice is side Bb though because it seems to sound the best (best tone).
