There is another point I want to make and see if double lip experienced players agree or disagree with this. I'm going to say it in the form of a proverb that's probably a tad bit exaggerated, but for the purposes of making a point.
"In single lip play, the right thumb anchors the clarinet, full stop. (Yamaha clarinet low "F" correction keys, etc., not withstanding.) In double lip play the right thumb plays a far more involved roll, more like the other 9 fingers, in pushing the clarinet, albeit gently, into the mouth, to achieve adequate pitch, color, and shape of the higher notes of the instrument's range."
Thoughts?
