Multiple time comeback player here. About 5 or 6 years ago I got the MTM program. Worked on my own diligently for months. Wasn’t working the way your videos said it should. Tried everything over and over, so I thought! Finally, went to bathroom mirror, eureka! I was changing shape when bringing mouthpiece to face. This clip is a good one. Precisely was my problem and may still be to a degree but I do play so much easier than ever before.
Inspirational and instructive video as always Greg! Thanks to Julie for being willing to share her experience. MM AA OO, such a seemingly simple concept but not always easy to put into practice when you've been playing differently all your life. Regardless, re training the brain is a fascinating and rewarding journey!
INCREDIBLE
Hallelujah! Beautiful!
Very helpful!
This video has been very helpful for me, so also The Bluzz. Maybe you in all your videos and book have told about squeeze in towards, but.... Because when you emphasising the loose feeling the squeeze wasn't obvious for me and everything was too loose! .... So what happens after mmmmm aaaooo (there is many ways to say m and ao, maybe "law" is closer?). You always say Tu Tu Tu Tu after mmm... aoo, then I think THIS helps to continue right. When the tongue is formed broad and forward - and the tip is down under the bottom teeth (as you prefer). What happens after that? You say "Bottom lip forward towards the top lip." Does your bottom lip look like you are extremely saur "like a clown"? It means forward as long as it can move down???? Next step: "towards the top lip", does that mean it goes up and close against top lip quite hard, but absolutely not in the middle, destroying the loose and open aperture. And the shape of the bottom lip is here horizontal when meeting the top lip. Right? Nextstep: Now aperture corners in (like you bite your finger) ... squeeze in toward. Now the grip is there. Is all this in the right order? Thanks for all you have done. Its really very, very helpful.
hi! are you in contact with paul mayes? is your concept similar to his concept? or is it even the same? thank you for your answer! best wishes!
I can understand her frustration. My problem is a slight underbite, causing the lower lip to drop back. I can hold my jaw forward when doing these exercises, but when adding the trumpet and all its distractions, the jaw drops back to its comfort zone. Holding the jaw forward also causes a touch of TMJ to rear its ugly head. I also found I could get the airstream working with the tissue and visualizer correctly when I would move the visualizer rim ridiculously low on my upper lip; I'm assuming that is incorrect as well. (sigh) Will keep slogging along to find "the spot" that is correct for my face.
I used to do this too. Keep working at it. It takes time. Don't think about the jaw, think about airstream being straight, then moving up when slurring up. Start low, practice daily. See Greg - MTM for more help.
I have found that the lower jaw is extremely important, in my opinion at least for me, in supporting the whole embouchure and taking the pressure of off the the top lip in order to produce a sound. It is a very complicated process that involves a lot of trial and error. When I was younger, nobody ever talked about jaw placement or even what a proper embouchure should be. Bottom line, I truly believe we all teach ourselves and that micro adjustments are key to finding out what works for us best. In the end, watch seems wrong for us, or feels absolutely wrong but maybe comfortable, may be exactly what we are looking for. Best of luck in your journey.
Buzzing on the lips and mpc yes or no?
