• keep the embouchure setting the same as and 8ve higher on the C#
  • leave space after the double dotted quarter note
  • make sure the 16ths (which is actually a 32nd in cut time) long, accented, and full in sound
  • take care that the last 16th is the same length as the others
  • swells must be gradual and even (not sudden)
  • Don't unseat the embouchure during rests-breathe through the nose
  • practice at controlled volume (add loudness as the last item)
  • accenting does not mean move
  • 8th notes should be long
  • slur veloce passage to center pitch
  • play directly on pitch center
  • triplets must have forward motion to the downbeat
  • make sure the 8th note triplet (ascending C# triad ) notes are as long as possible
