1 hole draw
Hi David I'm having trouble with all the 1 hole draws in the Strut I fill up with air very quickly. I think that I tense up when I see all them 1's coming up any advise ?
Many thanks Ron
Hello David, i'm having problems with drawing hole 1.
When i draw 1 it's like i only pull air trough the hole without creating a sound.
Then when i draw 1 while closing the nose with my fingers it sounds like it has to.
I find this strange because i'm useing the same technique as is do with all the other holes and there i have a good sound.
any advise?
Regards Jonas
Hello Jonas. It sounds like your nose is open while playing hole 1. Watch "I run out of breath so easily!" on this page https://www.bluesharmonica.com/faq and see if it helps. Report back and let me know if this has helped.
Watched the video .Tried some other posititions while drawing slowly and it worked.
The sound is not perfect yet but i'm already glad i got one.
I needed this draw 1 for the second chores of walk with me.
thanks for the hint
Great, glad to hear it. Keep on this path, it will get better and better with each day of practice.
Hey Ron...
#1 - Exhale before you start that passage
#2 - Your nose is open... close that sucker! (reference the FAQ video on the subject)
