Thank you very much for the reply. What you say appears to be the concensus.
My fingers are actually quite allright : perhaps from typing at the computer so much. Not as much "fluidity" as way back when, but even just a little bit of practicing ornamented scales does wonders.
As for reed exercises, I'm usually quite good at them. But when I put the reed back into the instruement, it's like I did no exercises at all!
You're right about focussing on sound quality. I'm really looking for a strategy to build facial strength (from the lips to the cheeks to the neck muscles - to prevent jaw fatigue) in a similar way as a body-builder gets a routine from a trainer. Doing the wrong exercises (or too many) will actually hurt the body, but the right ones (or the right amount) will develop upper-body strenght more quickly.
I'm looking for that kind of balance.
