I haven't seen any posts about posture recently, so please bear with me if this question has been asked before. I'd like to ask for advice on how to relax the shoulders while playing euphonium. I don't even notice when it's happening, but it has been pointed out to me that I scrunch up my shoulders when I am playing. The tension in my upper body is affecting my playing and I really want to get rid of this habit.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any advice?

Thanks!
Wil
