Subj: Re: Intonation

I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me with an intonation
problem I've been having. It seems that no matter how long I have
played, I am very flat. I have gone up a strength in reeds from a V12
3and a half to a 4. This reed type has seemed to get me the best tone.
I have checked my instrument and it doesn't seem to have any leaks or
anything. As far as I can tell and the others I play with regularly I
don't seem to have changed my embouchure. Has anyone else ever had this
problem? I've played 3 or 4 hour rehearsals and just barely gotten up to
pitch. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
