VIII Lip slurs
Correct lip slurs require several things but two points are essentail for the understanding of a correct lip slur.
The two points are as follows: (1) air must be CONSTANT (2) the embouchure is VARIABLE. If the air is
steady (constant) then the embouchure can change (VARY) as needed to focus for the correct note. If the
exercises before lip slurs have been done correctly, then the air has been constant and lip slurs should be easy.
Play each of the following exercises in positions 1-6. (Special note: be sure to adjust all 6th partial notes OUT
œ
slightly).
