BREATH AND EMBOUCHURE EXERCISES FOR SAXOPHONE
Rajnošek, Bharata ; SLOVÁČEK, Antonín (advisor) ; SOUKUP, Luboš (referee)
This thesis called Breath and Embouchure Exercises for Saxophone deals with the methodology of teaching techniques on the saxophone in a broader sense of all influences on tone creation. It begins with physical posture, continues with basic breathing techniques and only after their expected mastering proceeds to special techniques, which allow mastering of embouchure techniques and habits. This thesis follows and complements the publication of David Liebman: How to Play the Saxophone. The author goes more in depth where Liebman is too brief. He is not satisfied with just enumerating playing techniques but tries a view from the other side - from quality-aesthetic requirements to individual exercises. The focus of the thesis is to develop of a comprehensive system of exercises that leads those concerned through individual successive steps towards the ideal mastery of the tone creation technology. The aim is to provide reassurance to seekers on their way. The author as a teacher makes his proven system available also for other students.
