I’m doing a flute camp which started yesterday, and I’m going to play bass flute and alto flute for some songs. I played them for the first time yesterday, and I thought that they would be easy to play, but I can’t get anything higher than a C on the staff. We have a concert soon, and I am very nervous about the two pieces where I play these flutes.
I’ve tried changing my embouchure, but I have trouble maintaining it- mostly caused by being distracted and forgetting about it-, especially on alto because I have to play at a faster tempo. I managed to get a Eb on the staff on the bass flute, and a C on the staff for the alto. Any suggestions on how to fix my dilemma?
