Femi Kuti breaks saxophone world record

A week after just missing out on the world record Nigerian musician Femi Kuti can now claim the title of the person who has played a single note on a saxophone for the longest time.
According to his Twitter feed he played the note for more than 51 minutes.
He thought he had broken the record last week after blowing the note for 46 minutes 38 seconds but someone pointed out that American Vann Burchfield has gone over 47 minutes.
This time Femi made sure there was no ambiguity: 
The saxophonist uses a circular breathing method to sustain the note. According to BBC news.
