Hi Dr. Young. Thank you so much for this great explanation. What is your opinion on creating (or keeping) a flat chin? I've always prioritized this over the years but feel that maintaining this (especially when fatigued) has the potential to pull the corners backwards and create jaw/overall tension. Perhaps when the corners are in, the flat chin will simply be the result...maybe the only suggestion necessary (building on what you've already mentioned) would be to make sure the chin does not bunch upwards? This has been on my mind for a while and I would love your opinion!
Playing with the mpc and neck is definitely something I do on a regular basis. I dont think you can develop a good sound with that alone, but yes, it can be a great tool!
I just switched from oboe to sax, and I am struggling a LOT... I cannot explain how much this helped me!! Thank you so much I seriously needed this! ❤
I really appreciate this kind of content, my most sincere respect and admiration.
Thank You master

How much muscle strength do you need for the corners of your mouth? Is it right to fix the corners of my mouth and relax my lower jaw?
I watch your videos and wish I never got rid of my sax years ago.
Hey! There is always time to pick it back up! ha. Thanks for the compliment and for tuning in!
Haha Editions Delcourt études as well. Need to reread the Teale book again. Great video as usual.
Thank you!!
I heard an “oh” shaped embouchure helps. Is that true?
Yes, in so many words. "Oh" is just an illustration that forces the corners of the mouth to come in toward the center of the mouthpiece.
Can you develop a good tone on a Sax by just practicing with a mouthpiece and neck without the rest of the horn??

@@robertyoungsax thanks 🙏
