Hi,
Yes.
Some rims have a flat surface, with a definite inside
edge. These rims can aid in staccato, as well as a
more defined attack to a note, but can be a detriment

I would go with the standard issue braces, they are the better decision with
time whether or not music becomes a career. There are a ton of great brass
players who have braces ( look at the State level Music Ensembles) and it is

I went through the same mess a few years ago. My parents said that they would
pay for invisalign, should the orthodontist recomend them. The dentist said
that they were years ahead of their time, a neat but impractical idea, and that
we should not bother with them. We then sought another opinion

production, but to such a low degree that it can be
neglected. It is NOT the view point of the observer, which
makes the difference, but

Thank you. This is the product I was thinking of.
I know most children who wear braces adapt, more or less, after a while. It

Sorry, Hans.
That is one problem with having a discussion with an ex-professor. We
have a tendency to get pedantic.
Manny of the items mentioned depend on the conditions of the
observation, in effect the observer's point of view. For example, the
speed of light depends upon whether it is bei

There are braces that are molded plastic. The process involves making a
whole series of such braces. They are not unlike mouth guards used in some
contact sports. Ea

I have to agree, at least in part. I'm 74, so I remember well the

My wife and I have traveled fairly extensively and we have always been
treated well, where ever we've gone. For example, I've been to both

Ask him or her to buzz with relaxed lips & more lip opening.
But buzzing is not important. Playing a note with the
minimum of effort, that´s it. If notes start snarring,
something is wrong : lip opening too small, tension too
high, stiffness, too much BLOWING.

I have a begining student who can't buzz- his buzz is inconsistent and
powerless .What should I do ?
