However, the advent of circular breathing among professional wind players has allowed for the transcription of pieces composed for <a href="/wiki/String_instrument" title="String instrument">string instruments</a> containing a series of sustained notes that would otherwise be unplayable on wind instruments. A notable example is "<a href="/wiki/Moto_perpetuo" class="mw-redirect" title="Moto perpetuo">Moto Perpetuo</a>", transcribed for trumpet by <a href="/wiki/Rafael_M%C3%A9ndez" title="Rafael Méndez">Rafael Méndez</a> from the original violin work by <a href="/wiki/Niccol%C3%B2_Paganini" title="Niccolò Paganini">Paganini</a>. </p><p>In 1997, a <a href="/wiki/Guinness_World_Record" class="mw-redirect" title="Guinness World Record">Guinness World Record</a> was set for the longest held musical note when <a href="/wiki/Kenny_G" title="Kenny G">Kenny G</a> used circular breathing to sustain an E-flat on a <a href="/wiki/Saxophone" title="Saxophone">saxophone</a> for 45 minutes and 47 seconds.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In February 2000, Vann Burchfield surpassed G's record by playing one note for 47 minutes, 6 seconds.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>On his album <i>Didgeridoo Concerto</i> (1994), <a href="/wiki/Mark_Atkins_(musician)" title="Mark Atkins (musician)">Mark Atkins</a> played continuous tones for over 50 minutes.

When the lungs are nearly empty, the last volume of air is blown into the mouth, and the cheeks are inflated with part of this air. Then, while still blowing this last bit of air out by squeezing the cheeks, the musician must very quickly fill the lungs by inhaling through the nose prior to running out of air in the mouth. If done correctly, by the time the air in the mouth is nearly exhausted the musician can begin to exhale from the lungs once more, ready to repeat the process again. Essentially, circular breathing bridges the gap between exhalations with air stored in the cheeks, an extra air reserve to play with while sneaking in a breath through the nose. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Learning">Learning</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Circular_breathing&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Learning"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The usual first difficulty is to inhale through the nose while blowing out air stored in the cheeks. Some people may have difficulty doing this. This technique may be practiced by holding a finger in front of a thin air stream out of the lips and listening to the wind sound. </p><p>The next difficulty is to switch between cheek air and lung air without an unwelcome and uncontrolled jolt in the air pressure; this is achieved by learning to use the cheeks and the throat as a system of shock absorbers. A very simple method by which this is practiced is using a thin straw to blow on to the surface of a cup of water from just above water level, and watching the depression that the air stream creates on the water's surface. The aim is to blow continually and switch between cheek air and lung air without any change in the depth of this depression or groove or hole on the water's surface.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The traditional method of learning in zurna groups is to have one older player lead as the chanter zurna and ask the younger players to hold the unchanging "drone tone"s. Professional zurna groups may play non-stop for as long as the party lasts, and a drone tone may be held for the whole evening. This is possible thanks to the disk that the lip may lean and rest against, because otherwise, the lip muscles that resist the air pressure get tired first. </p> <div class="mw-heading
