Re: Embouchure

Anything that raises body tension will ultimately affect resonance.
Check out the videos on the Monette web site. There are a bunch of relaxed dudes making great music with equipment that demands good body use.
Then go to YouTube and check the finest players. Same thing!
I do not thing that tucking one arm in is beneficial.
The body use pages on the Monette site are universal. That approach will better your playing regardless of brand of instrument or mouthpiece!
