I took several years off and I never had great practice habits to begin with, so even though I'm not technically a beginner, this is extremely helpful! Thank you!

Just starting horn can you make a vid about for beginners on how to make sounds and improve buzzing that would be so helpful. Thanks for this vid too. Can’t do all of it yet but will some day 😁

Stepho Slade I asked you a couple of questions on the other video, but my first piece of advice would be to make sure you’re using enough air. You have to blow a lot of air to get a good sound.

I have a question miss Jaime…is there a right measurement on placing or adjusting the slides? I am playing B flat horn with 4th trigger… thank you 🇵🇭

Quick question: what is your music district for GMEA?

[@jsquaredhorn]

[@CarlosSanchez-rf7kq]

@@jsquaredhorn ah so close to mine; I'm district 7.

@@CarlosSanchez-rf7kq I actually have a lesson student that travels from Carroll County. It does take her about an hour to get to the studio, though.

[@CarlosSanchez-rf7kq]

@@jsquaredhorn heh I couldn't do that. Carrol is far from Paulding, so I assume I'm a lot farther.

[@jsquaredhorn]

@@CarlosSanchez-rf7kq Most definitely. Way too far, lol.
