I have two students who both played double lip when I began to teach them. I'd never had this happen before in over 50 years of teaching. The first student began as a 3rd grader and I did make an attempt to have her try single lip for a week or two. She resisted, and since I play double lip, I didn't have much ground from which to argue for single. She has since, 4 years later, developed a very nicely formed, controlled, responsive embouchure. The other student is a high school student who began lessons with me last year and was already very firmly established in her double lip approach, so trying to change her wasn't really a useful option. Again, she gets a very free, full sound.

I won't say that either wouldn't play just as well single lipped. But I find it interesting that in each case, they found double lip on their own.

I'm confused. You wrote "I've decided to let him stay with single lip which he says he prefers," but this sounds like he's playing double lip.
