Probably just more slowly and deeply!.
Serious athletes and players of wind instruments have a greater lung capacity than the average person!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not really!. They just adjust their breathing then they start playing!. I play bass clarinet, and while it doesn't require as much air as a tuba, I still need a decent amount to play effectively!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
