 Re: Embouchure question

Valuable comments from Gigliotti. As counterpoint to Gigliotti's statement that it is necessary only to exert "very little pressure, just enough to control and focus the sound," today Jose Franch Ballester says it is best to use even less lip pressure than would be necessary to focus the sound, and instead use tongue position to bring the sound into focus and up to pitch.

If Ballester is right, then a very loose embouchure can be used, as long as no air is leaking, and the tongue does the rest by narrowing and directing the air.

See his presentation of this idea here in "Tongue Position with Jose Franch Ballester":
