Travel Inside the Mouth - Point 7

David Barrett Admin's picture

At 2:25 he plays a tremolo. Note that his tremolo skill is not that great... he's working hard to get it started and sustain it. Our focus is the slight sympathetic movement of the tongue (see how it's moving because of the opening and closing of the vocal folds/chords... not because he's moving the tongue with the normal muscles associated with movement). At 2:33 he tries to perform the vibrato and he is doing it incorrectly. Take a look at this and we'll dig into this deeper tomorrow.
