Re: Upper Register drills

Well; Robin you can lead a horse to water eh?

Great advice; very much like what I was given by my teacher.

I think also that having a destination in mind is not a bad idea either. When setting a goal it seems to me that if you have no destination how will you know when your goal is achieved.

For me that was easy; I rarely see reprotire that is higher then "D" above high "C".

So I knew that in order to be able to play what I needed to I needed to be solid up to "E" above high "C" make sense?

I don't aspire to play much higher then that as I just have no reason to! I guess I subscribe to your school of thought!
