The concept of circular breathing is kind of a tricky one to explain. It's kind of like
riding a bike in that when you know how to do it, you're going to know how to do it forever.
It's quite tricky to actually get there. The concept basically in a nutshell is to form
a pocket of air in your mouth, like that, and to close off your throat so you're not
breathing. You're not connected to your lungs anymore. The air in your mouth is not connected
to your lungs. And you just push it out like that. While you're doing that, you breathe
in through your nose and refill your lungs. Sounds really tricky, but if you can slow
down the time it takes for the pocket of air in your mouth the empty, it gives you more
time to breath and start the air flow again smoothly. That gives you a good amount of
time.
The best way to practice this away from a didgeridoo is to sit yourself down with a
scotch glass and a straw and some water, and just try to keep the bubbles consistent by
doing that. That can go on forever. When we get to the saxophone, we take something that
we already know like long tones and just try to keep the tone consistent. That's how you
circular breathe.
