Matt,

Have you tried the obvious - making sure the breath is full and taking semi-frequent breaks?

Seriously, that WILL help. Also, imagine that you're practicing in the Concertgebouw, Pollack Hall, Taj Mahal, (fill in acoustic here). Your imagination and the way you connect it to your ear is more powerful than you might think.

Then again, there's always the basement. . . (?)

63 hours and ticking. Happy holidays.
