Lift

Hi David,
reading the pdf file "Notation Key", it is stated that the "Lift" is:
Similar to a Pull, with no articulation. Tongue releases after a tongue block tosound the chord in the embouchure. Can be used in place of any Pull if asofter sound is desired.
Looking at the videos (Tongue blocking study #3 on Pulls and Lessons with Ryan Walker, Gary's Blues song) I had the impression that the pull has to be done at a reduced volume relative to the other notes. So, in general, I thought that the pull should be softer than the lift.
Maybe I misunderstood because of my not good english.
Thank you, Stefano
Hello Stefano. Sorry for any concussion. The Pull and Lift should be played at the same volume. I will take out that confusing sentence in my next edit.
