Re: Mouthpiece pitch tendency

Eddie doesn't say anything at all about pitch in that portion of the video. Later he mentions in passing that a sound that isn't flabby is less likely to be flat. You seem to be falsely conflating things here. There is certainly a connection between biting and pitch but if your fundamentals are sound and you are using an appropriate reed, tip opening in and of itself is not a pitch determining factor. A more open tip can provide for greater flexibility of pitch but does not set the pitch per se. You do that.
