4th octave D flute fingering

The 4th octave D flute fingering is a bit tricky, but so are all of the fingerings in the fourth octave.

Left hand: Thumb (not on the B-flat key) and finger 3 (ring finger) and G-sharp key

Right hand: Fingers 1 and 2, and the low C keys

A lot of air is required for this note to speak. Work up to it starting with the third octave A, going by half steps, slowly.

A to A-sharp
A-sharp to B
B to C
C to C-sharp
C-sharp to D

Do you feel lightheaded? If so, you're probably doing it correctly.

Keep the embouchure relaxed. The air stream should be fast.
