producing a chord without humming other notes

Hey guys,

Upon a recent lesson with my teachers colleague (filled in due to illness) i was given an embouchere exercise, where i was to finger a Bottom F while holding down the A key at the top of the instrument. This produces a perfect 4th chord consisting of a g in the stave and the c above it when the embouchere is right. When the embouchere is looser you can make the g more prominent and tighter the C more prominent, and this has enabled me to learn how to control my embouchere better in regards of my playing.

Im just curious if anyone else knows any fingerings like this or has a link to it, as a friend is interested in the concept and is looking to include these ideas into his compositions

thanks again for all the help guys

Simon Cowton
