Articulated A(flat)/B(flat)
Trill
The articulated A(flat)/B(flat) Trill is used by fingering the A(flat),
depressing the thumb B(flat) key, and trilling the 3rd finger G key. A link
enables the B(flat) and A tone holes to operate together allowing the B(flat)
to sound properly. This mechanism can also play other trills from other notes
up to a B(flat). A clutch allows the link to be disengaged permitting certain
other fingerings in the high range of the instrument to be played.
