Okay, what I'm looking for is information on the Ab trill in the Battle and
Defeat of Napolean movement. It is written to gliss up from an Eb above the
bass clef staff to the Ab above that, then trill that note. The trill has a
flat written over it.
My question is: WHAT IS THE REAL WAY TO PLAY THIS PASSAGE?
I usually start the gliss in 7th (even though that is E natural) and come up
to the Ab. Is that right? What about the trill? I know several ways to
play it, and normally I wouldn't stress over it, but now I have to play it
for an audition, so it needs to be played the RIGHT way. What is the RIGHT
way? (Please don't revert to the ol' 'there's more than one way to play it'
explanation--I know that.) But how do you AUDITION on it?
Thanks,
James
