Round embouchure
Am I the only one that likes a round embouchure?

Did you know a sock puppet invented the flute?
I thought that the flute predated socks by a few days...weeks...etc.
We all takes what we can get, and enjoy it as we are able.
Ah yeah, since I'm here...round is better at times.
The wide angle Boehm thing seems like it is not needed except by those that can not find a hole that is any smaller...

hey e. man, i have just the wilkes hj only (with an 'unmarked wylde' body gotten from andrewk). it's a tasty embouchure.
what timing...i had taken that pic (for a friend) not long ago so i suppose this was as good an opportunity as ever to use it here.
there are a couple more hj's which didn't make it in the pic, but i think the general theme can be seen.

Does this have anything to do with this?
