Section 4
Articulation Drills
Like the long tones, this collection of articulation warm-ups has been accumulated over many years and from many sources.
● Tempo – Varies
● Start all exercises with the tongue on the reed and the air ready.
● Remember to “blow-through” the articulations and keep the air active at alltimes.
