Any tips for achieving a warmer tone and getting a better range? I’m a junior in HS and want to improve. On good days i can mostly hit a high Bb but it sounds strained and forced sometimes, same goes for anything above a F4.

I’ve also been practicing lip slurs over 2 octaves and I feel like its sounds “punchy” and not smooth, how can i improve this?

Any exercises and tips would be appreciated
