To work on getting a strong sound and clear articulation in the low register her are three exercises to try!

⭐️ If you want the FREE handout with a full video explanation check out jessicaleebank.com/resources 😊

1. 30 second long tones: Yeah, it’s what it sounds like 😬 BUT you need to work in a specific way. Play non vibrato and find a strong sound. Find different tone colors. Experiment with air direction, air speed, volume of air, and embouchure shape. THEN, once you find a good sound try to stop the note and articulate. Do it as an isolated articulation and also as repeated long articulations.

2. Expanding interval exercise: Find the expanding interval exercise in your De La Sonorite book and go to the one with the repeated low D’s. Play this with intervals slurring down to the D. Then play it starting on the D and slurring up to the other notes. Then play it all articulated. (Finally: play it as written all slurred)

3. Moyse exercise #12: this one is too much to explain in the caption, but basically find a low register melody/exercise and play with “ha”. No tongue just soul crushingly difficult ha’s 😉
