Subj: Re: [kl] More neurology + embouchure

I can see it now. You're about to complete one of the most succesful
Recitals of your
career. You've almost completed your last piece, the Weber 2nd Clarinet
Concerto, and your
about to start the last page with all the sextuplets. At that time you
begin to think about the
relationship of your embouchure to the mental process, and begin to turn
your fingers into
knots. You leave red faced, vow never to pick the instrument again, and
decide to take up
something more relaxing; like golf.
