 Re: Can doubling on tenor sax affect my embouchure?

It's easy to double on the clarinet and the saxes if you start on the clarinet first. But sax players trying to double of the clarinet have a harder time achieving a sweet clarinet sound.

Yes the sax embouchure is more relaxed. Well it should be if they are good players. I've seen sax player bite way too hard and this is a wrong approach. Actually it's wrong for clarinet players as well. Don't bite. Ever!

Frankly playing the saxes is easier. Less notes, but if you bite the low notes won't usually come out very well and you will often hit the octave above. It's a joy to play the saxes. Easy to learn.
