An "x" indicates a covered hole or G key, an
"o" (not shown here) indicates an open hole or G key. When the name of a key is given the
key should be depressed. The sign "/" stands for a half hole, or
in some instances a venting of the hole 1/4-3/4 open. The fractions 1/4 and 3/4
designates openings more or less than a half hole when the author
specifies the size of the hole. Parentheses "( )" indicate an
optional hole or key. Trills are designated as "tr," with more complex trills
written out as two or three fingerings.
