Subj: [kl] Air leaking...
Date: Thu, 20 Nov 2003 18:13:51 -0500

Ok, I decided to call in some help from everybody. I'm a fourth year band
teacher, and I'm just finally getting back to a consistent weekly practice
routine (it only took my three years!). Unfortunately, my mouth is back in
shape from college-except for my upper right corner! It's driving me
insane, because every time I play, I can hear the air leaking out of my
embouchure, but I don't seem to be able to close up this corner. Has
anyone experienced a "muscle lethargy" like mine after a hiatus from
regular playing? If you have any help tips for me, I sure would appreciate it!
