Later on after myofascial release therapy helped get rid of my jaw pain and tissue build-up. It also helped relieve tension after intense dystonic relapses. I used a TENS Unit in the past to help with my jaw pain and upper back tension, including fascial soreness which came about in 2013 and I resolved in 2015/16. To find out more about what tens units are used for you can read this article here: The Tens Unit I use(d) is the model 7000, 2nd edition: You guys are the best! I wouldn't feel comfortable playing among anyone else.and so happy to be playing along with your recognizable voices/instruments. I’m so thankful to play in this brass quintet with my twin sister (trumpet), my brother-in-law (trumpet/picc), and Dan and Bruce (low brass power). But I try to not focus on that and look at the positive. There still is a hole in my heart for missing out on my dream. There has been a lot of blood, sweat and tears over the years.literally. I thank God so much for hearing my prayers. It’s nothing short of miraculous to beat the odds to even a slight degree when it comes to this disability. and to be able to hear my sound come out the bell and ring in a hall again. I am really happy and humbled that my body/embouchure has allowed me to retrain. Still there are really bad days, but the good days out number relapse symptoms days, and things seem to get better every year. I first started experiencing onset symptoms of Musicians Dystonia 13 years ago. That’s been the greatest blessing, as I know it could be a lot worse. It’s a great representation of my current level of playing abilities despite being plagued with Focal Embouchure Dystonia.Īnywhoo! It’s taken years to get back to a place of sounding somewhat decent enough to feel comfortable playing within a group again. #musiciansdystonia #livingwithembouchuredystonia #musicianinjuryawarenessĪ huge thanks to Hayley for recording this (Merry Christmas)!!! Had to crop everyone out, so apologize for the weird angle or closeups. #musicianshealth #musiciansdystonia #embouchuredystonia #musicianinjuries #hornplayers #brassplaying 🎵 A bit eye-opening I have to say when you’re use to being in pain! 😊 It’s nice to not rely on Tylenol or Aleve rarely if ever. Usually around this time of year with weather changes bones/joints start to hurt. But it takes about 6 weeks of taking it 2-3x a day to see a physical difference - even in appearance/skin since it's originally used for that. Ohh! I also take collagen peptide supplement pills and my joint (especially wrists and ankle) has improved drastically. I still do fascia release/myofascial stretches in combination, because I think both internal and external approaches work best for me. I noticed an immediate difference and it feels great.Īlso the rose quartz roller (which I never thought of using before) is great for massaging sore muscles, and it has both a large and small roller attached. It helps to use the roller around my jaw joint since that tends to bulk up the quickest over time. More broadly, this music highlights the film’s nostalgic qualities – and its strong desire to project a romanticised version of Australia to a mainstream international audience.I find it much better than the standard ice pack! It helps when I have been playing a lot, as I notice when I really get back into heavy playing, my muscles both overly-tense/contract and sometimes swell around the massetter in particular especially on days where the FD is flared up more than normal.
The musical theme also plays a narrative and thematic role when it signifies, and cues in, Mick Dundee’s (Paul Hogan) sense of belonging to, and longing for, the rugged Australian outback – a sentiment he expresses regardless of where he is at any particular time.Īs is typical with such scoring devices (often referred to as leitmotifs), repetition is significant. The more times we experience the music in conjunction with the characters – and their longing for a particular place – the more stated the signification becomes.
The orchestral dynamics crescendo, helping to create forward momentum in the narrative, maximising the impact of the story. Elsewhere in the film the motif is repeated and doubled by a French horn – in a lower register to thicken the melodic texture. The flute performs sustained notes in an ascending melodic pattern. This theme from Peter Best’s score for Crocodile Dundee (Peter Faiman, 1985) fuses lush, spacious consonances, drawn-out reverberant flute gestures and bedding strings.
