The shape or the oral cavity does make a difference and so does what is
going on at the rear of the cavity. The later has an effect not only on
tone but intonation also as well as response in the top octave.

Could this be my major problem in getting my altissimo A to speak clearly?
Exactly what should be going on in the back of my oral cavity.

Also, I have the clear retainers that are that plastic barrier that nobody
is supposed to see, but they do... Could those effect my sound? I play with
them in.
