Have no idea what the medical term is for it now. A young person wants to learn 
to play the horn.  He has that extra skin on the bottom of his tongue. The 
doctors left it there since it wasn't affecting his speech. He can touch the 
back of his teeth and can reach his tongue at least to his lower lip. 
Has anybody experienced this either personally or with a student? Will it 
affect his playing or slow down how fast he can tongue rapid passages?  
Any good advice will be helpful. His parents don't want to let him get too 
excited about taking up the horn if it is something that will be impossible for 
him. Yet, we don't want to totally discourage him if he will be able to play 
regardless of the problem.
 
Thank You.
