This is very helpful Shawn! I am going to try being more relaxed as I get those weird whistling undertones sometimes. I never really get just pure sound. I've heard it's because of being too tense. Thank you!!! 🙏

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

stay tuned for the upcoming lessons tomorrow, the next day, and the day after. All of those will help you remove those pesky whistle tones!

Good embouchure is one, if not the most hard to get right aspects of Shakuhachi playing, in my experience.

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

It also is one that we have to check again and again. I find myself falling into bad habits all the time and I need to go back and adjust.

Helpful 👍

Hello there! If I keep my mouth 100% relaxed and natural, it slightly opens to the right side. If I do a tiny little shy kiss, the aperture is centred. Which one should I do? I imagine the "kiss" makes muscles work more and can be tiring at length. I received my Shakuhachi Yuu yesterday and can produce no more than a tiny whistle-like sound.

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

It is hard to say without seeing but if it is working, please use it!

@@TairyuShakuhachi Thank you for your reply. 🙏 I've just intentionally produced a A and a C notes for the 1st time (and checked with a tuning app). I'm looking forward to following your lessons on your website.

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

Wonderful!

Very interesting!

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

I hope it helped.

[@eduzenmetal]

@@TairyuShakuhachi It certainly was! I really like the content on your channel, I'm new to Shakuhachi, and I always learn a lot from your classes, I want to thank you for that.

[@TairyuShakuhachi]

You are most very welcome
