Thats a YES.
No more difficult than accurately holding a 3'' draw bend or 10' blow bend
with the same conditions.

> I am unfamiliar with much of Levy's work (in addition to being unfamiliar

with much of Weltman, Michalek, or other's work), so I need to ask this
question: can an overblown note be held for several bars of a slow tune with
a soft, sweet vibrato? It seems to me that the overblown notes' tendencies
towards flatness, squealing, or unstability would make it difficult to hold
an overblown note in a ballad.

it a chromatic instrument?
