Re: Tongue Level

Kevin,

My experience has been almost exactly the same as yours and strangely enough starting to play a C with a good sound was also the catalyst. The key for me was in using 'TOH' as Manny has suggested and backing way off compared to the Bb.

The realisation for me, like you, was that physical strength has nothing to do with it. It's all about synchronisation and balance.

Good post.

Regards,


Trevor
