The man! Tom, are you still playing double-lipped? Sounds beautiful.

French embouchure---to be sure---I'm cut from the whole cloth of the great French school of the late 19th/early 20th century. Glad you like it. This piece is what French embouchure was made for---and it was written by one of those early 20th century clarinetists---who played French embouchure.
