Low Register Exercises

Hi Tony,

From an earlier thread that I had posted, Tony’s Practice Routine, you said:

“…I'm a bit of a lip slur nut, so that eats up about 20-30 minutes (many patterns in different registers). After that, I'll do some tonguing exercises, particularly in the low register where my tonguing is not-so-great…”

Do you know of any exercises that focus on extending the range in the lower register? I know of a warm-up pattern and other exercises that focus more on extending range, and most of them seem to want to extend the upper-register and middle register but I’d like to work more on my lower register at the moment. Could you describe your tonguing exercises in the lower register or any other exercises that you know?

Thanks in advance,

Janell
