What is an E#/Fb fingering on flute? or an alternate name for the note?

[Krista B]

as A# is Bb and so on E# is Fb. are there any other names? or what is the fingering for it on flute?

[mamianka]

Yes, A# sounds the same as Bb - but you have hit an exception with E#. That note ( the enharmonic spelling) is F. And Fb is E. If you look at a piano, there is no black note between E and F - that is why this is an exception. same deal with B and C - B# is C - Cb is B.

[Warren]

You are looking for the term enharmonic. ( e sharp is enharmonic to f ). The missing black key on the piano gives you the half-step necessary to the major key of C.When playing other scales the sharps and flats are added to create the steps and half steps of the diatonic scale.
