Re: clarinet vs sax embouchure

I totally disagree it's the exact same muscles used in a clarinet and sax embouchure. The physical tone generator, the mouthpiece and reed are damn near identical, what do you think you're supposed to do differently with your embouchure? The ONLY purpose an embouchure has on any single reed instrument is to create a cushion for the reed and create a seal to allow the pressure on the inside of the mouth to be pressurized to a degree greater than the ambient pressure in the instrument.
