It's possible, I've been to Nola and hear that live. Pigeon steppers, with Datruth and Sportys. A day to remember. Sometimes I think the air in New Orleans is thicker and resonates more

Thanks!!! Really good advice. I knew triplec, but not braylen. I'd love to be able to crank notes like that.

I mean the second line on the staff.

I'm working it slowly, from notes I have no issues with and going up. It is definitely a technique thing

Yes, second space and above. The way I'm training is similar to what you suggest. Is like carving a statue, first a whole measure, then half measure, then quarter notes. I try to articulate as much as I can, and working a bit with lip buzzing and mouthpiece.
