Its important to be familiar with all semi tones. This is an easy warm-cum-check up exercise.
Start lets say, on middle c, b, bb,a , ab(g#) ,g ,f#, f , e , eb, d, db(C#) c, b, bb.
If g# doesnt work ,you have a sticky key or a dislodged spring, if you can't get any notes sounding easily below
e: you got problems. So to carry a nice sound from the midle to the bottom is a good simple check if everything is sip shape. you need a big space in your mouth like saying "awsome",and try pushing you jaw and bootom lip further down towards ligatur.
In Blues you need flat3 flat 5 and flat 7, sometimes flat 6
so one sooner needs to know all keys(on the instrument) and all keys=scales in your head.
I often use "bib"button Bb(first finger LH pressB and the small1 under it)Handy for songs in F or Bb
So far for today Hermann (c:
