[Harp-L] Tongue blocking/tongue switching

["John F. Potts" <hvyj@xxxxxxx>]

i can tongue block, but I've had a difficult time learning to tongue  
switch (play a single hole on the left of my mouth as easily as on  
the right).  I'm actually a mixed embouchure player and usually LP,  
but I've been trying to learn tongue switching for the exercise.

Anyway, after finally starting to get the hang of it, I discovered  
that's it a WHOLE LOT EASIER to get deep bends out of draw 2 and draw  
3 opening up the left side of the mouth than it was from the right.   
Maybe all you accomplished tongue blockers already knew this, but it  
was quite a discovery for me since the difference is so dramatic,   
Live and learn.

FWIW.
