 Re: Converting to double lip embouchure

Hi Tony,

I just read the keepers thread most of the way down and it makes a lot of sense in the context of what I'm doing. I've been experimenting with DL for a few days, but now my upper lip hurts and I'm back on SL, which is working much much better than before. I think the symmetry of the two lips that you mention does guide the lower lip with me, and the benefit of that is definitely a thing that I see in my own playing.

Another thing that occurs strongly to me while I'm doing this:

When I'm experimenting with playing DL, it helps immensely to know that I can do that and talk about it with the explicit approval of the community, and that SL is also approved of if I switch back. I find that it opens up lots of scope for experimentation, which really helps my playing to develop and improve rapidly.

My husband says that in any kind of teamwork one of the factors that accurately predicts success is a quality called psychological safety, which means that people in the team feel safe to do stuff, experiment, and ask questions, and know that they won't be criticised. I think the fact that both SL and DL playing draw strong approval from this community provides a lot of psychological safety for players to experiment and find whatever embouchure works for their own anatomical make-up. I think that is probably very healthy, and brings out the best in people. Just a thought anyway.

Thanks for the links. I'll read the other next.
