Now we’ve moved on to needing a bucket full of water and blowing bubbles?
Come on guys do we really always need a gimmick or gadget to play a trumpet? Or in this case just to breathe steady?
Side note; wasn’t “Bubbles” the name of Michael Jackson’s Chimpanzee? |

That's fine. Then don't do it.

Wouldn’t practicing legato teach how the tongue should interrupt the airflow without puffing? Then proceed up the different articulations to staccato while learning what that process taught you. I was told that the breath should be continuous unless a rest was written and I think that is a more musical way to play. The attack makes the sense of space even on staccato. How could anyone play 32nd notes staccato with breath attacks?? I’m just a wanderer on a journey like a lot of people here but it seems to me this would work, and give some inner understanding of what go’s on instead of just words??
