I have been working on reducing tension in my throat while playing trumpet. I’ve experienced periods of “EUREKA” moments where I could play easily and fully relaxed, so I know what effortless playing feels like.
However, after 6–7 good days, my throat suddenly locks up, and I enter a crisis lasting several days, making it very difficult to play above G2.
Could you provide specific steps or exercises to quickly address this recurring throat tension and help me regain consistent ease?
