 Re: Thumb position

The attached two photos show the problems of my hand position.

In 9389 you can see what happens when I try to cover the thumb hole but not the register key. My thumb ends up trying to bend back further than it can go and that hurts.

In 9390 you can see where I put my thumb when I play a long run of notes that require the register key but not the thumb hole. My thumb is just fractionally further up, which means that when I need to cover the thumb hole again, I have to move it back down. That takes up time that I do not have if I am playing fast.

Sorry it's a bit complicated to explain. I would be really glad to know who might help me to sort it out.

Thanks!

Jennifer
