Re: Teaching sound projection to young students

I think a lot of the hesitance in younger students is that they are afriad to squeek and make mistakes so they figure if they cover everything they aren't at as high of a risk. What I tell my students two very common pieces of advice which seem to work.

1. Play out and don't be afraid to squeek, more than likely you wont.
2. Imagine you are in a huge concert hall and you have to play so that everyone in the back can hear you clearly like they were standing right infront of you.

i know this is very common knowledge, I just thought I would share again.

Goodluck,
James
