4.6. CHORD VARIATIONS through LIP
         PRESSURE
 
Chords can be varied according to your lip pressure in five different ways.
 
Select any of the five methods below with the following fingerings:
 
low D & palm F & Eb to next level
low D & palm F & C to previous level
low D & palm F & Eb/C back to level
level 1 INVERSIONS - (DYNAMIC HARMONY)
level 2 b-II SUBSTITUTE functions on high lip pressure
level 3 variable NUMBER OF VOICES (more lip pressure decreases of voices)
level 4 variable NUMBER OF VOICES (more lip pressure increases # of voices)
level 5 chords / unison (loose = chords, tight = unison)
level 6 unison / chords (loose = unison, tight = chords)
 
The panic function resets to level 1 (DYNAMIC HARMONY)

- Level 2 allows for chromatic "escape"' from the momentary key the harmony is in.
- Level 3 to 6 are providing a flexible way of "lipping" the number of voices you want to go along with your melodic line. Naturally, the maximum number of voices should be chosen (s. 4.1) before.
