Through a series of interviews with many of his former students, TubaPeopleTV (TPTV) is dedicated to highlighting the pedagogy and professional stature of longtime Chicago Symphony principal tubist, Arnold Jacobs.
Always order wind, not expansion. In other words, when you take a breath, you must order suction of air from the tip of your mouth. The psychology of wind is at the tip of your mouth. When you order suction of air expansion will follow. But if you merely order expansion you may or may not get any air. The body can lie. Breathe to expand, don’t expand to breathe. #ArnoldJacobs#JakePed
