Any advice folks? Generally my tone's getting better every day (though still not good - 6 weeks in) but the note that always seems to sound appalling as when I play A. Worse still, if I need to go from A to C to F then back to A it sounds terrible. I'm trying to get a grip on In the mood and doing sort of basically OK ish (by my standards so nowhere near good - just less terrible than I was!) I have so been battling doing long notes forever and concentrating on A but as yet, no success or real improvement. It just sounds weak and course. I also get squeeks between the F and the A but I guess this really is just more practice needed. If it is my embouchure - which I'm sure it is - what is it in particular that would effect this not and not so much any of the others? Thank you all - I know one of you might be able to give me some ideas. I am having lessons now so will ask my teacher next week but any thoughts in the meantime would be really really appreciated - thanx
