Hi guys
Firstly, I've just signed up to this forum so, Hello everyone.
I'm really a trombone player and I've just got myself a flute, so I'm starting at the beginning again.
I have a question... I can get a pretty reasonable note with just the mouthpiece section (what's the proper name for that?) but when I put the flute together I can get a reasonable C, B and D, but the A and (high) E are weak and they're about the only notes I can get.
Is this sort of problem normal for a beginner or am I probably doing something wrong? I'm trying very hard to "unlearn" my brass embouchure and start again so maybe it's to do with that?
What do you think?
Sam
