QuoteThere is still a shift in this register
Funny enough I had to shift in exact the same area when I was a student of C-O N.
Same with some other guys. I did never find out why.
C-O N, allways warned agaist opening the jaws, he was not awere about the fact that he did that him self. Very much.

Quote from: svenlarsson on Aug 07, 2017, 03:05AMI am sorry, I of some reason have probably mixed up some memories.
Doesn't the remark "feel is more important than sound" apply to some of the Carmine Caruso studies?
I might be wrong here, but I think I've heard that when practising the six tones study.

Tom, I always thought it was to remember the feeling in the chops when a great-sounding note is produced. Then re-create that feeling on subsequent efforts and hopefully the great sound will re-appear.

Sure, but have a try at the six tones. I've heard trumpeters play that study with a terrible awful sound.
It is a very difficult study with a bad technique.
Not quite as difficult with a better technique.
With a good technique never as easy as it looks

Okay, I know what you mean. I am still learning the best way to do rapid arpeggio slurs. I can do them with a bad sound or I can do them with a good sound. But an effortless good sound is still something for me to work at.

Maybe you could have a go with your Chas Collin book?

Lol! When I get it! My instructor and I are working on me.
I'll show that book to him on my next session.
