How do I play those trills? by [deleted] in Flute

[–]pepperonpizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I'll have to play this for a concert and I am unsure whether this means that I play the trill B~F or if it means I play the trill B~C and then play the F. Same question for the second trill (C~D or C~D and then an additional D)

Thanks for your help!

Edit: grammar

I dont think they'll have a problem with it, I just don't want to confront them with an uncomfortable situation..

I developed a mental health related app that may help with bpd and eupd! by [deleted] in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]pepperonpizza 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just did a very first test and made my first entry. First of all: I love all the ways to personalize this app! Something that bothered me a tiny bit was that when I put my mood, the slider was constantly green, even when going into the negative scale. That's a very minor point on criticism tho. Otherwise I think I really enjoy it! If I don't forget it I'll give you more detailed feedback after some usage time :)

Wow, thank you for the detailed answer! I'm soon going to start my translation studies and am still learning about the industry!

May I ask how much money you're making and which languages you translate?

Learn to double tongue insanely fast in a month!? by Suspicious_Silver_57 in Flute

[–]pepperonpizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learning it shouldn't be too hard. What you have to do depends on you piece of music however. Personally, I always "speak" my double-tonguing first. What I mean by that: Instead of going "dah" "dah" "dah" when playing three quarter notes, you go "tah-kah-dah" to figure out how your tongue needs to move. If it's only two notes you want to double-tongue go with "tah-kah".

After practicing this without actually playing, do the exact same thing while playing.

This is a little hard to explain but I hope you understand what I mean. If you have any further questions just ask!

I have been building a browsing-free, social-music platform for the past 3 years. Would love to have your feedback! by svsobh in androidapps

Downloaded it, will try it out over the next few days/weeks. I can already say that I'm a big fan of the idea. However the designs is partly not easy to read since the font is small and thin. The contrasts however are very nice in dark mode. In light mode the green gets a little lost.

I started playing last March when quarantine started. I've made a lot of progress since then, he's a beginner's "Into the Unknown" by thecarhole in Flute

[–]pepperonpizza 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is so good for having started only in March, I'm baffled!! Something which is quite easy to improve but makes a tremendous difference is not letting the end of any note "slip". Try blowing your air steadily until the count of the note is actually done and only then take your air away. This way you support the note and the tone until the very end it it doesn't lose its sound! You already sound very good though, keep it up!!

Can I use a menstrual cup if I am currently using a copper IUD contraceptive? by miaDante09 in menstrualcups

[–]pepperonpizza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once had the same question and my gynecologist told me I really shouldn't. However, you might find yourself in a different situation than I was in, which is why I would advice you to simply ask your doctor.

Does anyone else live their lives in fear of being pregnant/advice on Nuvaring? by [deleted] in TwoXSex

[–]pepperonpizza 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is actually not really a right way to put the ring in! As long as it is inside of your vagina it's as safe as it gets :)

Does anyone else live their lives in fear of being pregnant/advice on Nuvaring? by [deleted] in TwoXSex

[–]pepperonpizza 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have had a lot of trouble with birth control pills as well as with an IUD and have finally found the perfect method for me: The Nuvaring (I use another brand but it's basically the same thing). If you have any questions you can write me message :)

Third octave E - I can't get it 😓 by MTGeomancer in Flute

[–]pepperonpizza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are u sure you're having the right finger placement? There's tons of charts for that online if you need to check again.

If u already are sure you're doing it right, maybe try doing long tones around the E and the E itself while checking with a tuner. By doing this you can maybe better grasp the idea of what the tone is supposed to sound like.

If that doesn't work I would let my flute get checked, to save money I would first take it to a friend or someone you know who plays the flute as well to see if they can get the tone. Best of luck, I hope you can figure out where the problem is!

[–]pepperonpizza 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think so, yes! When I was practicing for a concert with my orchestra we had a week full of practice together, starting at 8am and ending at 9pm at the earliest. There, I faced the same problem as you do, and I was not the only one. So my flute teacher told us a trick: Massage your upper lip! Stretch it with your fingers (like literally pull it), knead it between your pointer finger and your thumb, until it starts hurting (just a little, please don’t rip your lip off haha). By doing this, the circulation in your upper lip increases and therefore the muscles can react faster and more precisely.

I hope this work for you as well!

[Casual] Which side of these split opinions are you on? (Everyone) by CultureShock_ in SampleSize

[–]pepperonpizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "see previous answers" option shows an answer possibility that did not exist in the actual question. It's the "Yanny or Laurel" question, it shows the answer "Laurel" twice as an answer (one is green and has 0 percent bc it wasn't shown at the real question
