I believe this article does not meet WP:NLIST. Copying from my discussion on the talk page - Circle breathing is a very common technique among experts of many (if not most) wind instruments. At best this list seems like a fairly arbitrary, and inevitably unrepresentative, list of musicians whose circle breathing has been mentioned in articles, quite often in passing. To say they are "known" for circle breathing feels like quite a strong statement aside from a handful of people who have done exceptional things with the technique, like Kenny G's notable record. To me this seems like the equivalent of a list of "Musicians known for wind multiphonics" - an advanced and relatively uncommon technique to be sure, but rarely a significant point of notability.

• Delete definitely an unneeded list, per the nominator and above comment. — Karnataka ^talk 09:01, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
• Delete - It's an unencyclopedic distinction that does not qualify for an article per WP:NLIST. As the nominator said convincingly, if this is a technique that almost everyone in the field uses, the list will be arbitrary and forever incomplete, with little value to the interested reader. A few notable pioneers can be mentioned at the main article for Circular breathing. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 17:36, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
