Play the five whole notes in a single breath at 60 the quarter note on the
metronome, thus maintaining a stable column of air for 20 seconds. Play as close
and relaxed as possible from note to note, put the tuner on and maintain the pitch
between note and note as much as possible. At the end of five notes play a
diminuendo and exhale very slowly in a relaxed way. Rest a few seconds, and
continue with the next five rounds. Focus on connecting, good sound, tuning and
relaxation of the fingers and breathing. Pay attention to the sound tendency in
each note.
