Just one caution, make sure you drop the jaw slightly as you descend into this C Bb A region.I've caught myself several times actually closing up instead, getting the notes out in a shallow way that sound initially better but screws up things around it and decreases flexibility.Start in an area above and play into and back out of it scale wise and of course play it like a love song, you can be a pirate later.DAveM
