There was one improvised solo that whent on for well over two minuets in the upper register well above the staff, the amazeing part is he never took a breath, he must have been circular breathing but I've never seen someone do it that well in the upper register.

I saw a similar event at a jazz concert a few weeks back. There was this trumpeter, Irvin Mayfeild who did a solo that climbed up and down 3 octaves and never took a breath. It was simply amazing. I could tell he was circular breathing because his cheeks would be filled with air and then while he was playing he would breathe through his nose to fill up his cheeks. I've never really seen circular breathing put to practical use before that.
