Hi Maarten,
A generic question:* If the key is C-minor, and I want a trill on (midinotes) D# and E, what would the correct trill notes be?
Depends on the context -- i.e., which note is the "fundamental" and which is the "embellishment", as well as the underlying harmonic structure (chords, etc.).
* Is the correct method suitable for each instrument? Or are there instrument which would prefer a specific one of these options?
Harmonically, there is only one "correct" answer -- from a performance/engraving perspective, there may be other ways of writing it which are easier to play (based on fingering, ease of sight- reading, etc.).
Hope this helps! Kieren.
