Sounds like you're hyperventilating.

May have to do with improper breath support. Habit (1 B) not 2 B's like rabbit =)

Make the hole smaller that you blow through.

Are you playing your Bundy piccolo during the same period? That might account for some of the dizziness.

Ya. Too much blowing going on.
As I said don't allow a large opening in your lips. You're wasting air. In the low range, you think that you can relax the lips and this causes too much air. In the high notes, you're trying to blow too hard and this causes too much air. Just learn to control the lip opening and the breath pressure/support so as to not waste any air. This is only my guess.

The piccolo uses a much smaller quantity of air, even though the pressure is higher.

AS kids we used to make eachother faint by heavy breathing followed by a bear hug which raised blood pressure.


So presumably the pressure one is blowing at actually assists for this dizziness to occur. Higher prepssure (i.e. high notes) pushing more C02 into the blood?
