Thank you for the great tips! I think the 'alternate' G# fingering should be treated as pretty much the default on the piccolo. It speaks so much better. Peace, love and mustard!
The added R2-R3 fingering for G# works REALLY well on the flute too. For me, it's more impactful than on piccolo. I had no idea about the C#. I will be using that anywhere there isn't a run. It's odd that adding fingers raises the pitch, but I feel like it almost comes out in a different harmonic? A better one?
Dear Julia, I have only now discovered your wonderful, helpful videos. I'm really interested for alternate fingerings. Is there an overview of all alternate fingerings? Thanks a lot. Dennis
Hi Dennis, Glad you find the videos helpful! I plan to do an overview video of all the alternate fingerings in the next few days. In the meantime, I highly recommend checking out « The Complete Piccolo » by Jan Gippo. Tons of fingering options in that book!

Agreed! Haha on my tshirt. That should be my new sign off. 😁💛
