Sometimes I have bad tone days! Don’t you?

Even when I am in good shape from a steady diet of practice, rehearsals, and performances, I can still have a bad tone day.

So, what can we do to pull out of the doldrums and make it a good tone day?

Here’s how you experiment to fix your tone while you are working on your technique.
