Back to school today. Well, not school, but band is back in the diary for Thursday nights. It’s funny, but even though I haven’t picked up my flute since mid-July (slaps wrist!) I found that my breathing and tone were much improved. The only thing I can figure out that I’ve done differently since then, is spend two weeks a hay-meadow, scything and losing half a stone in 40 degree heat…
Maybe that’s the secret. Scything makes for a better flute player??!!!
The swimming probably helps, too.
I find that I have better breath control for singing when I am in better shape, so maybe it’s the same for you.
That reminds me. . . must do something abou these excess kilos soon.In this part of the world Spring has begun. That means three months until summer, and no hiding under woollen layers.
