Re: Lower Clarion Problems

I think not covering the tone holes certainly could be a problem (I had a problem with my left middle finger causing squeaks on A5 until about a month ago), but it seems a little weird that G5->C5 is fine while G5->B4 has problems. In any case, I will bring this to my private teacher tomorrow. We’ve looked into this before but with no luck. However, I will get him to try my horn.

I’ve flattened out my chin, brought the corners up, and brought the back of the tongue much higher up to the “eee” position.

C5 can sometimes be a little hard to articulate and a little flat during initial attack (around 5 cents, easy to bring up), but others are fine. I’m currently playing an M15 with V12 4s.
