    I find it difficult to get my lips to trill.  Even harder is to transition to a different note (e.g. from C to G or from G to C) while lip trilling.  Every time I try to change the pitch, the trill stops.  This is quite frustrating.  Any technique i can use to overcome the difficulty?  Thanks!

    Hi, Zhanyong! That does sound frustrating. My advice is to change pitch VERY gradually. Rather than C to G, see if you can slide just slightly higher or lower (C to C# or C to B, for example). 

    Additionally, here is an article I wrote on lip trills, including some helpful tips!
