OH that was a good point!!!!

My principal teacher, Bernard Jean, was well known in the province of Québec both as a performer and teacher, but I don't know how he was known elsewhere, especially in non-French places.

At any rate, he made a deal about planning breaths.... not only where to breathe in but also where to breathe out. What I mean by that is that breathing OUT served 2 purposes:
2. it is a partakes fully in the character of the piece
1. it helps to plan the most efficient places to breath IN.

By breathing out, somehow the air is fresher at the next inhalation. This helps with endurance. In my case there is also a psychological effect because I'm really not comfortable with small breaths. I tend to panic when my lungs are not filled at capacity: a big problem when swimming... I HATE the water!
