| Re: Range Help?
Hi RaeRay,
Everyone that has posted is right, there's no shortcut. Some of the things that have been suggested are great, but you can also try taking some easy melodies and playing them an octave higher. You know simple songs. Play them as musically as you can up there. Try to get them to sound as nice as they do where they're actually written. Never let the music suffer when you try to play high. You can also try playing a lot of marches and hymns. The more the horn is on your face and you're playing correctly, your chops should improve. Remember to rest enough as well. You can't beat your chops into submission.
