Hi Rob,

Physics and I aren't on speaking terms these days but when I buzz a middle G and slowly insert the mouthpiece into the horn I play the same note. Jim Thompson's exercises mirror buzzing and playing. I'd go with the former.

Are there any Adam students out there who wish to comment?

Best,
EC
