 Building stamina without playing
Author: Lesley 
Date:   2022-10-11 19:55

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me. I have been told by the dentist that a nerve in one of my front teeth is inflamed, probably caused by clenching and grinding my jaw while sleeping.
I have been told that to give it a chance to recover, I have not to bite anything with my front teeth for at least a week and I shouldn't play the clarinet.
I am currently preparing for a concert with the band I play in which will take place in a few weeks. The music is not a problem, but the programme is 90 minutes long with only a few rests, so I was planning to practice a lot to build stamina.
Does anyone have tips for anything I can do to build stamina without actually playing - mouth exercises, breathing exercises etc? Or any advice on how to minimise the pressure on my front teeth when playing? Thanks in advance!
