RE: Double lip questions

Larry Guy's embouchure training and Anthony Gigliotti's column echoes a training method...

Play the G above the staff with some confidence, and the other notes will follow.

They mention only the RH thumb and embouchure in contact with the clarinet for 4-16 measures of 1/4 notes at 60-80 BPM.

I find it exhausting. This does help reinforce the sort of upper lip tension that helps in single-lip playing 'way up high'.

PS - Has any one heard JBYeh play the Shaw concerto on Reference records?
How inna hell do you play a note THAT far up there widdout an Eefer?

The Tuba always looks so inviting after a session like that.

Yike!
