How to Play E♭ on Piccolo
E♭ on the piccolo is written in the top space. It is the same note as D♯, so the fingering below works for both.
Sounds an octave higher
E♭
Press: left thumb on the B key, left second finger, left third finger, right first finger, right second finger, right third finger and right pinky on the D♯ key.
Like low D♯, but lift the left index finger.
