 Re: Double lip in altissimo

Why not the direct approach? What I would do, and did do for similar wide intervals and the general case, is practice specific intervals until they're smooth, and just figure it out.

Except for the fingering, everything you do to play that D beautifully can and should be in effect while you are playing the previous notes beautifully. I don't see that any change in embouchure or tongue position at all is needed to negotiate those leaps (unless there are intonation issues you can't correct any other way, or you want to deliberately change the quality of the sound.) Nor would I (ever) use the open D, certainly not on extended notes such as shown.

One practice technique in this would be to play the interval (and adjacent intervals) backwards as well as forwards, until you can repeatedly slur back and forth with smoothness and ease.

I see voicing as a matter of keeping the entire tongue lightly tensioned so that all vibratory lengths are supported internally. That's why you often hear advice to keep the tongue arched for altissimo notes - arching lightly tensions the relevant portions of the tongue. The nice thing about it is that you can maintain that arch, or as I prefer light tensioning of the entire length of the tongue, for any & all pitches / internal vibratory lengths. Doing so will promote good quality sound in all registers.
