I have been doing two pedal tone exercises; the Claude Gordon exercises and Laurie Frink’s Flexus. I try not to manipulate the notes. Think about what Arturo Sandoval talked about when he said he doesn’t think pedal tones. He just thinks low notes.

Cheers,

Scott

I wanted to get someone else’s take on this routine.

This is short and sweet, but I just thought I would throw this out there.

They seem to be getting better, but occasionally I still get the ‘grace note’ harmonic in between.

It sounds like a grace note a I slur up. I know it’s to do with setting and I try not to compensate by giving it a kick. Any suggestions about what I can do to overcome this?

Cheers.

I watched the video and agree with everything you said. The most difficult thing to do is to let go of preconceptions. I came across this book several years ago. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Alexander-Technique-Approach-Trumpet-ebook/dp/B004JKMSNO
