Open C# tends to play sharp and the timbre sounds different. Sometimes I add a side key to help correct the pitch or I will use the low C# fingering and add the octave key. If I play open C#, I drop my jaw just a little to lower the pitch and bring it in tune.
they use the tenor sax, so you would have to transope all notes and the key down 5 half steps to start.
If you do not have a high F# key you will be actually playing an altissimo note. Play a high A with the octave key depressed. Now keep the same fingering except move your left index finger up to the bis key or the key next to where you were. At the same time, add the Bb side key. That is the fingering I use for F#. You might have to curl your tongue some like saying "Hurl" when you blow. It takes practice.
Hold the three main keys that you hold with your left hand, then hold the next two of the three main keys that you put into your right hand. The main keys are are the keys which you put the tips of your fingers on.
High G uses an open fingering.
To play a sharp B flat on a trumpet, you would use the first valve and the third valve together.
To play F sharp on the alto saxophone, you typically use the following fingering: Press down the first, second, and third fingers of your left hand, and the first and second fingers of your right hand.
The correct fingering for playing a G sharp on the piano is to use your thumb (1) for the G key and your middle finger (3) for the black key to the right of it.
The correct fingering for playing the B sharp note on a piano is to use your right thumb (1) for the B key and your right index finger (2) for the C key.

There are many similarities. The mouthpiece and reed are similar, as is the embouchure (how you use the small muscles around the mouth), although the clarinet embouchure requires more strength. In the middle octave, from fourth line D to B above the staff, the primary fingerings are the same. There are differences, too. In addition to the obvious different shape and weight of the instruments, the sax overblows at the octave, meaning the middle octave has the same fingerings for each note as in the low octave (except for the addition of the octave key), while the clarinet overblows at the twelfth, meaning the fingering for the low octave is different. For example, the fingering for middle C with the addition of the register key sounds a G in the middle register of the clarinet. The more complicated fingering and the additional embouchure strength required to play clarinet makes it harder for a sax player to learn the clarinet than it is for a clarinet player to learn sax. Many teachers encourage young players who are interested in saxophone to start on clarinet. The young clarinet player doesn't have to deal with the weight of the sax, and learns skills that transfer easily.
To play a G/F piano chord, use the following fingering: G (thumb) - F (middle finger) - B (pinky finger).
You play it by the normal two A keys which is the top two keys. Then you play your octave key which you use for your high D
