"in Song and Wind, there is no Chapter on 'How to Play High' or other facets of playing; instead, an overview of Jacobs' teaching philosiphies and some readily understood (non-specific) breathing excercises."
You should really read this book. The book is not an overview and there is plenty more than breathing excerises. From the book: "Rotate the lips inward upon themselves rather than assuming a broad smiling position. The resulting tighter lip surfaces will vibrate faster."
The old guy is still available for lessons. . . read the book and listen to the CD several times.
