Throat noise

Post by windchime »

Hello! I have a low throat noise going on when I'm playing. It sounds like an alto trying to sing along with my playing. How do I get rid of it? Thanks a lot.

Try keeping your throat more open. Think of it as yawning while you play. That should help...

that seemed to work better, I just played Silent Night while thinking of being sleepy and yawning and I didn't hum along with myself. Thanks!
