Subj: [kl] Palatial Air Leak
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 1998 20:59:36 -0500

Hi. I'm a music performance student at Indiana State University. I
need to know if any of you have had a problem such as this. Whenever
I play for an extended period of time, a sound comes out of my throat
that sounds like an air leak. I think it's called a Palatial Air
Leak (I remember reading something about it in the clarinet journal).
I have tried everything short of cutting my head off, and that
incessant noise still comes from my throat. Do any of you know what
it is?

Yours Truly,

Ricardo
