F (Bb) Horn Fingerings

* Fingerings are shown for most of the Horn's practical range, F Horn fingerings on top and
Bb Horn fingerings (where applicable) are shown below the F fingering with the "t" for trigger.
There is debate among Hornists as to the use of the different fingerings,but a good guideline is to use
the F side for G (treble clef, 2nd line) and below & the Bb side Ab (treble clef, 2nd space) and above.
However, Bb horn fingerings may be useful for certain low notes to help them speak more easily.
