Example number 4.
Any suggestion about the first meausere, where holes 2 and 3 are bended. I found difficult going from 2'' to 2 then 3'' and back again to 2".

Thanks David, now is going
Thanks David, now is going better.
I was trying to switch from 2'' to 3'' without blocking hole 2 with the tongue. That was the problem :)
Yes, that is very challenging. Keep your bend embouchure from the 3" (tongue raised) and move the constriction point that you're using for the 3" bend a little further back in the mouth for the 2". So, the focus is to keep the tongue raised in transition with a slight adjustment back for the deeper bend. I know it's challenging, but this work will pay big dividends as you start to play more advanced licks that use these combinations. Best wishes with this.
