Hey I'm new here! My name is Taylor. I have been playing the flute for 3 years and I just recently picked up the piccolo. I can't wait to get to know you all and it will be nice to know I have people I can come to with questions, because I will have pleanty of them!

Welcome. Ask away. I am sure that someone will help you out!

always nice to have a new friendly face on the forum, you can learn a lot here

ok thanks...hahaha here's question one. When I play high notes on the piccolo, its really loud. I now that you can't avoid some loudness, but is there anyway to make a little softer, without ruining my tone?

you need to approach those notes, that is difficult for anyone to do. Also, take a passage and play it louder, say MF, and gradually repeat the passage softer and softer until you feel the right embouchure for such soft playing...

ok thanks a lot you guys, I will have to try that

I play the drums!
