I think it is because of my braces and the wires I have on the top of my moth to pull teeth down. I was wondering how I can get rid of the fuzzy sound that it makes when I play. Maybe it is my flute please help me. maintube Registered User Registered: 5/26/2004 posted: 2/10/2005 at 12:55:22 AM ET You are going through a adjustment period with your braces. Be patient and keep working. make sure you keep the arperture(the hole formed with you lips when you play) small. A good exercise I just heard of, was to get one of those small straws that people stir coffee with in restaurants. Form your embouchure and hold the straw with your lips and BLOW hard air through it. This gets the arperture to the proper size. Do you think this topic is inappropriate? Vote it down. After a thread receives a certain amount of negative votes it will be automatically locked.
