Musical Madness

Author: Super Mario

One thing I have loved doing in my ever-dwindling high school career was to play in the orchestra for our school's fine musicals. Last year, I didn't play much in the "Mystery of Edwin Drood" but this year, in "Mame," i play nearly the entire show. I am a soprano player but i play bass for a good majority of the time. Today is the last preformance after a week of 3 hour shows and my question is, is my embouchure going to be compromised in any way once i get back into my regular routine, especially from playing bass so much? As a music-major-to-be i dont want this to happen. I know that brass players need alot fo time to recover after hours of arduous playing, but is it the same for us? Or will i just have chops of steel?

We are the music, while the music lasts.
