Difficult to Play F?

Post by Flautist »

Ocassionally, when in the middle of a piece and I come to an F or an F2 I cannot seem to play it. It takes real effort (much more than should be used) to produce it. Straightening up seems to help this problem somewhat but has anyone else experienced this and does anyone have any tips?

Hi there - just in case you haven't checked, you might possibly have a leak in the F key (or another associated key)... can you get your teacher to check this for you?

Thanks, it was indeed a leak in the F key and is being resolved.
