That Gb is the same as high F#!. Remember to NOT have your thumb on the rear Bb key - just the B key!.

LH 1 T 3 RH 3 PK (pinkie!)!.

You can also try this with the pinkie on the C# key instead of the Eb key - and/or the middle F# key instead of the 3 finger!. Lotsa possibilities - lotsa situations!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If its the G thats an Octave over the g that sits on the treble clef then use your ring, pointer and middle finger on the left hand!. You will need cold fast air to do it so try to tighten the embouchure a littleWww@QuestionHome@Com
