Subject: 2nd hole bend - again :))))

Hi to you all,
as you can see I'm a happy harper.
This is a real meaning of mailing lists. You'v got a problem, you ask for advice, a 1000 friends give you their opinion and the problem is solved.

Just to let you know, maybe this helps:
I thought it was the gapping problem, but then I thought to check it with my other harp, wooden marine bend in A.
I coudn't make the bend at first, but I was able to get it when I lowered my head so my throat would bend and decrease the airflow.
So I tried it with my special 20 and couldn't get it. Finally I tried to pinch my nose and it worked :))))))

I guess Ken Merigentime had it right all along, thanks a million.
In addition, I tried doing some TB bending and, wow, it worked. Now in just a day and a half I'm advanced months in my tehnique.

One more thing, since this happend I can feel loosing my air in to the nose. How can I stop this from happening?

Thanks to you all,
I'll be reading you,
Ante
