silent relaxed, quick breathing in context and practice out of context.
Relaxed stomach
Maintain contact with MP – spread corners (or not) to breathe
Micro burst inhale – key is relaxed
Throat noises
Tone
Core studies
Divot
Tuner
Play along with Pros
Vibrato work and trill work help develop core sound
Equipment
Flexibility determines tone
Posture
Relaxed engagement
Back against chair
Subtle directive cues – trust your section
Listening
Mind reader – know your principal, study your tone in the section. Record one rehearsal a week???
Know your sound – develop your silent and trusted attacks
Warm Up
I try to get into the flexibility and articulation part of my warm up immediately after glissandi.
Finding my sound – pedal tones, descending valve work and middle register glissandi and triple tonguing. Working to stay relaxed.
I like to use a met to find my fronts and time my air. Always start with breath attacks then I move to accented “bop” notes or pppp short starts. I add length as I progress through the warm up
Buzzing
It is similar to stretching before exercise. May or may not prevent over-use but is nothing like the actual race. Better to low buzz after playing a long set.
Buzzing has become controversial over the years. Use sparingly and never longer than 5 minutes at a time.
