Good stuff. I have never seen all these illustrations. A friend in Florida studied with Jerome. My friend said every week he went for a lesson, JC would say "forget what we did last week, here's what we're doing this week"!

Exactly! It was hysterical. I'd no sooner get the last thing he showed me down, then he would show me the NEW thing he'd been working on! He told me once "I've changed my embouchure 100's of times!" But the setting he showed me in the early 2000's is the one I settled on.

Yeah, that sounds about right. 🤣

I’m not a huge fan of Callet’s method, BUT there’re some true on the “lower lip above upper teeth “ …. will result better for highs. Observe when everyone smile, upper lip always rise, showing the upper teeth, right ? Compare with the Adam Rapa, Charlie Porter’s concept on “sneeze muscles” (hope you understand what I’m saying) and you will see it happen. Bottom lip on upper teeth.
