No, I do not believe that you are going to have to start back at Square one. What I would do is just keep moving you lips around until you get it. See what happened is your mind and body worked together to allow you to play this instrument and you just have to reteach you mind and reposition your lips untill it sounds right!

to construct your chops back up, prepare for roughly 10 minutes at a time, thrice an afternoon. Slowly build your self as much as fifteen, then 20, then half-hour altogether, somewhat of thrice. frequently an intermediate musician performs everywhere from 0.5 an hour to 2 hours an afternoon. do no longer positioned on your self out; drink water jointly as youre enjoying, no longer something. additionally dont bite gum or positioned on any style of lip balm or gloss. Play some scales to heat up, and additionally, some scales as a funky-down. to maintain up self belief that could be a competent concept to end on a competent notice. Megan
