wow. Knowing what I already know, this puts more pieces of the puzzle together for me. I dont know about you all. I can breathe that way but never knew it supercedes the lip strength. very valuable indeed. Its like breathing with your mouth but then close your mouth. The throat stays open and the nose does the air but not letting the nose be the restrictor.
It isn't about lip strength per se it's more a matter of finding the right way of using all the pieces. And of course having cooperative physical tools helps. If some teacher had insisted that Maynard play with a textbook, centered embouchure we never would have heard of him. He played with an unconventional embouchure. When he got to the conservatory in Montreal, the brass instructors were told to leave his embouchure alone.
@@stefanivvan959 Something I read or maybe even an interview with Maynard. I imagine you could find the source asking on some Maynard enthusiast forum.
I've always loved his playing, and thought he seemed like a really cool, down to earth dude. I just recently found out he spent a good bit of time with and even lived with Timothy Leary when Leary was in his LSD experimenting days.
Above all else a fantastic human being
I remember watching this way back when after school 1977

@@MaynardFreek you've never even touched a trumpet. Stop talking.
I can't for the life of me figure out how he opens his throat like that
just try to sing a note while having the mouth closed
I think Maynard had the Spinal Tap philosophy: have a good time ALL the time.

He was definitely into expanding the mind and I'm sure a few trips were taken.
This is really good!! Thanks sir. Does anyone know the name of the book that Maynard talkes about?
The Science of Breath by Yogi Ramacharaka
Melba Moore.

Nobody should breathe through his mouth.
