Femi Kuti breaks world record, holds single musical note for 46 minutes on a sax.

Femi Kuti, son of late legend Fela Kuti, on Sunday, May 7, held a single musical note for 46 minutes, 38 seconds breaking a world record.

He achieved the feat while performing at the New Afrikan Shrine.

Recall that in 1997, a Guinness World Record was set for longest held musical note by saxophonist Kenny G.

But Kenny G lost the world record in 2000 after musician Vann Burchfield held a note for 47 minutes, 5.5 seconds.

Circular breathing is a technique which keeps a steady stream of air flowing through the saxophone even as the player breathes. See video below:
