Can someone clarify what the difference between double and single lip
is? I assume I play single lip - my lower lip curls back and covers my
bottom teeth, and my two top front teeth touch the top of the
mouthpiece. I can't imagine playing with both lips curled back. I'll
have to try tomorrow to see what you mean (I don't think anyone would
appreciate me trying out a new style of clarinet playing at 2am in the
dorm...)

Thanks,
Scott
