Sorry Philip--I should have better provided some context.

Recent discussions here about the transition from single to double lip play--take the embouchure or leave it--have smartly advocated a gradual approach of low notes, with the clarinet resting on one's knee, for only a few minutes a day, slowly building up.

Such wise advise, assuming one wishes to effect this transition (a topic perhaps for another thread) serves as comic juxtaposition to instead adopt a standing posture, without neckstrap, where the instrument is anything but stable, and the player all the while dancing: like Leo P and others in the video.
