Re: Long Tones 2009

Author: pelo_ensortijado  Date:   2009-04-14 12:21 i would say there is nothing as good as long tones and really slow scales when warming up. it keeps you focused on the little details that you later during the day, when the ears get "tired", cant detect and correct. i use about 45 min to 1 hour every day(besides the "long-tones" i wrote about earlier) for long tones and slooow scales in variying outfits to perfect my sound and fundamentals. its that time of the day i really learn something important. the rest of the day i have to learn parts and solos and dont really have energy to think about both fundamentals and music... stuff that i focus on when doing long tones and scales is: legato emboshure(sp?) airsupport tounge voicing projection dynamics intonation sure there are other ways of practice this, but for me its the easiest way and gives me the most peace of mind and focus on the problems in hand. i wouldnt make it without it. //niclas
