| Re: Tonguing
For the past 2 days I've been practicing with different tonguing styles that you all have mentioned here. I think the "anchor tongue" is the most difficult haha. As far as to the roof of my mouth, behind the front teeth maybe half an inch... I can do it... but it feels like my mouth is being pressurized. I see the potential for quality haha but its just not happening.. When I tongue at the lips (like I have all my life) everything happens more freely.. I'm putting it on inexperience now.. The note stchasking left is true for me also.. I find that when I'm less focused I can produce a better quality (still crappy on a large scale of course)
Speaking of... My tone is raw too.. I tried going in the bathroom, closing the door and playing long tones to try to adjust myself... Now, I sound beautiful in the bathroom, but anywhere else.... well you get it...
