Playing with an Open Throat - FluteTips 148

What is wrong with my tone? I feel like I’m doing everything right!

Have you ever asked that question? We have all felt that way some time or another. It can be quite discouraging to try to do everything correctly but still not quite have the tone you want. Sometimes though the answer is right there.

Have you ever considered the role your throat plays in your tone?

It is not always what comes to mind in correcting tone. However, it can be the missing piece that keeps you from the best tone.

Watch as I explain the role of your throat and how to fix it to see if this is the missing piece to improve your tone.

Have fun!
