Flute Embrochure Flexibility
by Matt Spencer
Playing octaves is difficult and requires much practice to master.
Here is an excercise that can help with that:
*Have special fingerings
œ #œ œ #œ œ #œ œ œ #œ
œ
& 42 œ #œ œ #œ
œ #œ œ #œ œ #œ œ œ #œ
œ #œ œ #œ œ
Ascending
* * * *
bœ œ œ bœ œ bœ œ bœ œ œ bœ
& bœ œ bœ
8
œ œ bœ œ bœ œ bœ œ œ
œ bœ œ bœ œ
Decening
* * * *
In many songs there are large "leaps" (Example: Telemann Fantasys).
This tecchnique practice helps a lot with those types of passages.
Progress on this and go faster and faster.
