WIND POWER & THE TONGUE — Purtle Brass Conference 2011 · I

This lecture revisits the foundational relationship between wind power and tongue function, expanding upon the diagnostic principles presented in earlier conference sessions.

Jeff Purtle clarifies how airflow efficiency and tongue coordination influence response, clarity, and upper-register reliability. Emphasis is placed on identifying systemic causes rather than isolated technical symptoms.

This lecture opens the three-part Purtle Brass Conference 2011 series and focuses on refining core trumpet function through the Claude Gordon tradition.

RANGE & WIND CONTROL— Purtle Brass Conference 2011 · II

This session examines range development through controlled, efficient wind use rather than force or compensation. Jeff Purtle demonstrates how range limitations are often the result of mismanaged airflow rather than embouchure strength alone.

Drawing from Claude Gordon’s pedagogical principles, this lecture reframes range as a byproduct of system balance and coordination.

This lecture is part of the Purtle Brass Conference 2011 study series.
