This sort of thing is hard to diagnose online, especially through text. Your question isn't specifically about playing music as a blind person, so I recommend posting this in a flute forum instead of here, since you'll get more comprehensive answers. There are plenty of online forums for just about every instrument.</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Nov 28, 2023 at 1:30 PM Jennie Facer via Menvi-discuss <<a href="mailto:menvi-discuss@menvi.org" target="_blank">menvi-discuss@menvi.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hello all,<br>
<br>
My name is Jenn and I am from Idaho. Thank you for letting me be on this list. I am totally blind and have been playing flute off and on for 38 years. My question is this:<br>
<br>
I have dentures now, and I'm trying to play my flute like I used to. Has anyone else had dentures and learned to play your instrument successfuly? If so, how did you accomplish the hurdle? I have enough air but my apiture is failing me. Lol. Thanks again for leting me be on this list.<br>
