I guess itÂ´ll take so much time to look up correct fingerings in that chart (YouÂ´d really have to practise to look something up during that eighth-note-rest before the questioned note) you would be better off just practising that passage.

The transposing chart for all kinds of keys might do a great job, though.

Is this how it works:

During the 1812 overture you get this out and before each note the conductor waits for everyone in the orchestra to figure out the fingerings for the next note. When everyone has figured it out, they play it then go to the next note.

Wow, anyone can play in an orchestra - it's like being a rap star, you don't need to know nothing about music!

The ad says baritone. Will this also work on a euphonium???

I had one of those *WAY* back when in the 4th grade as a novice cornet player.... I remember thinking it was pretty cool... of course I turned out to be one of the band geeks (worse yet a tuba player) by the time I got to junior high school...

I was actually thinking of buying this because I thought it might be a fun thing to frame and put up on the wall of my "tuba" room along with my King instrument clock, and my Tubby the Tuba cels.

Sad, but true.

This is a nice effort at a universal fingering chart, yet it fails miserably due to one glaring, unjustified, and reprehensible omission:

No GG contrabass bugle fingerings!

Get this shoddy product off the board. Shameful.

Didn't Dr. Strangelove use one of these things?

Yeah, he used it sometime between him giving the nazi salute, and him going crazy starting the nuclear war. It was his "Doomsday machine" that was to go off.

Yeah, well, someone's got to protect our precious bodily fluids.

My beginner piano teacher propped these cardboard signs at the back of the keyboard to show us the note name for each key.They kept falling over onto the keys.I was glad when she finally took them away.
