| "Good trumpet players know how and when to rest" (not a direct quote, but pretty close) - Bob Nagel, former student of Ernest S. Williams.
Further more: Every passage you play if followed by an equal amont of rest will enable you to play all day long. Example: 8 bars of playing, 8 bars of rest. 24 bars playing, 24 bars rest. Not always practical, but try this in your practice and you will see the results. |
