My days of playing in an Airforce Band were over 30 years ago and I didnt play Euphonium for that period. A few weeks ago, I played Euphonoum on a street march again, only this time, I did it with 2/3 of my right lung missing. It worked just fine. Breath deeply and consistently. Hold your instrument correctly and firmly. Stop worrying about what you cant do. Just do it. Best Wishes. Rod
