Running out of aiir in solo haromonica study
Hello David, I´m running out of air so easely wen trying to play the Solo harmonica studyes, especially on number 3. What could be possibly happening?
Thank you
A little suggestion, I had the same problem when I was on there:
Pu you harp down and do this exercise whenewer you want:
1) Inhale air trying to keep your nose close, if you want you can help yourself at the beginning closing your nose with two finger.
2) Exhale using your mouth and your nose together.
The target is to get used to close your nose when you draw and to push out the air using both nose and mouth when you blow.
Hello guys!
I´m sorry for the bad, spelling I was using my cel phone!
Instructor, in almost all of them. I wasn´t having trouble with the Solo Studie number 3 until last week, Yesterday when I was practicing , i´ve noticed that I was running out of air so fast. I think i´ve changed something (I don´t know what) thatis stealing me some air, probably the bends. I´ve noticed that I was wasting too much air for the bends, like trying to bend with the maximum tone "size" and opening the mouth too much... anyways...
Mr. Luckyharp, you´re probably right! I´ll try that and I´ll come back here to tell the results!
Thanks guys and sorry for the bad spelling again!!
Yes, having your nose closed as a rule is important. When you need air (in or out), open your nose (usually on the out). While bending, your nose should be closed at all times. It's also possible that when releasing your bend your nose is opening, so check that, that's a common fix to look for.
