 Braces
Author: sanya

I have been playing with braces since the 8th grade, and I swear, it is so hard on my embochure! It is very difficult to uphold a good tone because the braces hurt so badly that my lips loosen and then, of course, air leaks. This one time, I wanted to try double-lipping because I heard it works really well, but alas -- my braces killed me! But tomorrow, I am getting my braces taken off. YAY! Now, I am hoping that I can, without those dumb wires hurting me, make a better embochure and play better altogether. Do you think my braces removal will help? I sure hope so, because I really do want to try double-lipping.
