Re: Struggling with Circular Breathing

I heard that Sharon Bezali can circular breathe on flute - I can't see how that can be easy as flutes don't have any breath resistance. Harry Carney could circular breathe on bari sax - even on the lowest notes!

I can circular breathe on oboe and cor, but not on clarinet or sax as the breath resistance on them is much lower compared to oboe/cor. I only worked out how to do that by watching a Sicilian oboist play the entire opening of the Strauss concerto (on my oboe) using circular breathing. It's easier to learn something by having someone demonstrate it to you rather than by reading about it.
