all my scales 3 octaves and I do it everyday, playing has become a lot easier. So in
my case, this whole scale thing is workin

pieces that I'm unsure of, and my teacher doesn't have a definite answer for, either.
If you have suggestions for these, let me know:

My question for this one is the trills
I noticed a similar trend when I switched from my Yamaha 567 to my Schmid double. I
had always been taught to play at the center of the slot, but the instrument must be
in tune to do that, and I was so used to the tuning on the Yamaha (it was all over the

Re-reading the Phil Myers piece on the Schmid triple, I was struck by what he put in
