| Mr. Jacobs had us use a piece of plastic pipe fitting, various sizes. Allows for inhalation with the tongue down and relaxed. Transfer that feeling to your inhale with the trumpet up. Simple stimulus/response. Listen for the sound the air makes as well through the tube. "OOH" rushing sound without effort. Gets the throat open and relaxed, the air drops to the bottom of the lungs (how it seems. I know the air fills equally to the vacum created by the expanding lungs. But stimulus/response, feel the air drop to the bottom of the lungs and everything will be open and relaxed.) Breathing is simple when you use the right message control panel.
