Hi all,
I've had this problem for a long time but it became very apparent while I was working on some of the long runs of Weber 2. I have no problem breathing when I am allowed to take my time to get a deep breath, such as the beginning of a piece or phrase. But if I need to sneak a breath in between a long run or passage, I have tested that I can only perhaps half as long before I have to stop for air. It is definitely a huge problem for me not just for Weber 2 but just clarinet playing in general.
It seems like I can't get a full breath when I take a quick one. When I have time to take a breath I fill stomach and lungs with air until I feel like I will explode, but I can't get that to happen when I try to speed up the process. It seems like I am able to fill up most of the lungs but maybe half of the stomach, if that makes sense.
Any help, suggestions, or exercises to improve my breathing techniques would be appreciated. Thanks so much!
-- Ray Zhang
