LOA 1, Solo Study 1, Chording

Hi David,
As I work through the Solo study 1, Chording....ex. 1.12 ....as I get into the chording, I find
after 6 to eight bars, I have too much breath and need to let some out. I need to release the
breath, but still stay in rhythm. the one 2 blow just does not seem like enough of a note
to expell all the air I need to. My question
is that of where/how to release more breaths and still stay in rhythm (and not over blow the
2 blow) ?
Thank you for your time
Steve
Good morning Steve. Open your nose on the 2+'s, closing it again on the inhale notes. I address this in the video titled "I run out of breath so easily!" on this page http://www.bluesharmonica.com/faq
Best wishes on this.
P.S., Joe Filisko calls this the exhale push and talks about it in this lessons as well.
