Having had a stroke five months ago, I have been working hard at getting my left side to work. My face was involved enough to numb the left side of my embouchure. I was placed in a resident rehab, and in addition to redeveloping the neural path ways, they had me working on very specific exerci

Hi Catherine, That's exactly the problem I ran into. I had planned on getting my wisdom teeth out earlier in the summer, but I had other gigs that prevented that. I got my teeth out 4 wks before my first audition. Fortunately, I had sent in a taped audition earlier for a talent scholarship,
