Just like with all brass instruments, some people do better with low mouthpiece placement rather than a high one. Have you ever seen the embouchure of Josh Williams? He was recently named one of the best horn players in the world and his placement is about 1:2, not 2:1. -E
Wrong. There is no one correct placement that works for everyone. Everyone's teeth size, contours, and jaw structures are different. Mouthpiece placement should be determined according to whatever produces the best sound. Educated teachers are aware of exercises that will quickly help an individual find the placement that gives them the best sound. Only the uninformed teachers will try to shoe-horn everyone into what they've found works for them. That's one of the reasons that good performers rarely make the best teachers.
@@deborahstahl5982 I don't know whether you're being sarcastic or serious. If you are implying that a person has to produce videos, otherwise what they has no credibility, you are sorely mistaken. I don't put out videos with flawed universal ideas about embouchures that put people into a one-size-fits-all category. Each player is an individual and with my students I look at their unique physical characteristics and then I instruct them on the mouthpiece placement and embouchure techniques that work most compatibly with their physical characteristics.
Well, I was being serious. I was hoping that you could expand on your methods for determining how to find the correct embouchure formation for an individual player. The video demonstrator was showing the starting point for a beginning horn player (I believe) and was not intending his video to be a "one size fits all" solution. I reached out to you because I thought you might have some additional helpful information, in any format, that I might find helpful as a non-beginner with some embouchure weaknesses. After re-reading your comment to the video and your reply to me, I'm not sure I am still interested in your response to my initial request. I feel certain from your comment to me that you have nothing in any format that would help me strengthen my embouchure challenges.
@@deborahstahl5982 I have a process of finding the balance point in a player's embouchure and placing the mouthpiece in the position that optimizes that balance point, and the net result is a placement that provides the player with the best sound and most efficient operation of their embouchure, which affords them better range, endurance, and flexibility. I don't publish my process and give away my knowledge for free. It took me many years to acquire this knowledge and develop this process; therefore, I deserve to be compensated for it. This is why I get preturbed by these charlatans who don't know what they're talking about putting out TH-cam videos to make side money. All they're doing is repeating and perpetuating the same fallacies that have plagued the world of brass pedagogy since time immemorial. And today's "do-it-yourself-with-the-internet" society is only too happy to listen to the nonsense being spewed, believe it, and waste their time. If you have problems with your embouchure, break out some money and get yourself a qualified teacher.

Can you make one on hand placement inside the bell?
More side angle shots would improve this video tremendously.
Lifesaver thank you for the tip
Thank you!

Where can I find your video on mouthpiece placement, embouchure formation, etc.?
