Roger and Co.

I've been focusing on the first few pages of the
Scholossberg, actually.  Particularly the exercize
with the 4 quarter note, half note, half rest figure. 
low F, middle F, middle G, middle F, low F half note
with fermata.  Forte dynamics throughout the phrase. 
It's harder than I thought!

I've been focusing on blowing through these notes, at
about quarter note equals 52, and using the low F to
"springboard" to the upper notes.  I haven't even
cracked the second half of the book, because I wanted
to make sure the first few exercizes were done
correctly.

On another note, I looked at my mouthpiece today, and
sure enough, it sets in the receiver quite a bit
farther than on the Edwards...maybe it's time for
teflon tape?
