Pete did a great video on these... I'm curious can / should they be done in different keys other than G w/side key?

You can also do this in the key of C. Starting on C2 up to E-F-F#-G. Using the third finger of your left hand (the G key) as the trill key. This works well on a C7 chord.

Pete's example works well on a G7 chord.

I also use it on Ab and A

Very effective along with double tones (similar to a trumpet putting the mute on and off the bell). Good post.

Also, don't forget part two which shows the hands. And a nice shirt.

Never mind the trill; damn, I want that shirt, Pete!!

It pairs nicely with your Buescher 400...
