Mini: Circular Breathing Have you ever heard of circular breathing? For musicians who play instruments that require blown air, circular breathing is a technique to produce continuous notes without being interrupted by breathing in. However, circular breathing isn't a very accurate name for it. We'll explain what it is, how to do it, and briefly touch on circular breathing as it relates to mindfulness and throat singing.

Useless Facts, Badly Drawn

The inventor of the Saxophone, Adolphe Sax, was unusually accident-prone. He fell from great heights many times; suffered severe burns; ate a pin; accidentally drank acid; took a nap in a room full of varnished furniture and inhaled toxic fumes; was in a gunpowder explosion; and nearly drowned several times. His neighbors nicknamed him "little Sax the ghost," and his mother worried that he would not survive into adulthood.
