Hello Ladies and gents!

I have a problem with my playing that is starting to worry me just a little. I've been working on using my air support (and taking lessons) a lot lately, and things are really working out great! I couldn't be happier with what using good air support has done to my tone and register. However, I've noticed, especially when I start working in my upper register or have just started playing the horn for the day, that I have problems hitting notes in the middle of my register. I mean, they're there, but I get this gross double buzz noise. Another thing that happens sometimes is when I'm playing in my higher register (not really high, but G's above the staff and stuff) and then have to jump down to, say, an A in the staff, I completely miss it and get a gross pedal tone-ish sound.

I'm not sure what it is, but I'd like any input about it. I'm going to be talking with my teacher this week, of course, but I thought that ya'll might have some insight into this problem (er, these problems?).

Thanks a bunch!

Lara
