So much to think about - thank you for your insight. Does your bottom lip move and is it kind of curled over your bottom teeth. I feel so close, yet so far away from my aha moment. Thanks again
It can, depending on your embouchure type. Callet had many different ways to go about this. I do a video showing other permutations here: th-cam.com/video/rn9_i4hpQBM/w-d-xo.html
When you have the right teeth width, where are your bottom teeth relative to your top teeth ? I mean are they in-line, or are the bottom teeth in front of the top teeth? Also do you close your teeth as you ascend above high C ? (C above the stave), and do you move your bottom jaw forwards?
My teeth are near alignment vertically, but not exactly. As I ascend, I don't think about closing the jaw (it stays more or less in the same position), but it does move forward.
Makes a lot of sense, thank you
Glad it helps!
Very important observation. Right on!
Thanks!
