| Greetings, Olaf and welcome to TM!
You are experienceing some of the normal things alot of us experience, first of all. You may want to try practicing along with a drone to help you identify where the weak notes on the horn are. Sharpness is usually caused by tension...besure to take full, relaxed breaths and release the air, rather than push it.
When you say octaves, do you mean when you play in octaves with other players or when you play the same note in a different octave? (G to G comes to mind).
I'm sure others will chime in with other ideas...this hopefully will get you started.
Great to hear from the tulip capitol of the world! Makes me think spring! |
