27th October 2016 - Patience

Doing scales.

Moving through the second octave.

Moving from the low to the high register.

Arpeggios.

Looking up Arpeggios on google.



They say it's easier for a camel to go through the eye of an needle than a rich man go to heaven.

They say that your embouchure should be the size of a grain of rice on the side.




I'm picturing that camel.  No bigger than a grain of rice.  I'm  playing a second register G and puffing the little guy through my new Olwell.  But he knows the parable (who told him?) and he won't always go.  He gets stuck and makes a low G honk in annoyance.



Patience.  I'll win him over with kindness and time.
