How to get started playing myfife

The embouchure is the shape and position of the lips when we play a wind instrument. Before jumping straight in to myfife, here are some simple exercises to try out. We start with using your finger instead of your myfife, followed by a ‘blind spot’ on your myfife, followed by the myfife itself.
