Concert E♭33rd partialBeginner note
Written F4 on the treble staff

Plays the real sound: written F4 sounds concert E♭3 on baritone (treble clef).

F4 is the 3rd partial with valve 1, 2 semitones below open G4. It sounds concert E♭3. The 3rd partial tends a little sharp; relax the aperture rather than pushing. Treble-clef baritone reads like trumpet but sounds an octave lower, so aim for a dark, round sound here.
