We'll see how things work out.
The round embouchure died out in the early 19th century, to be replaced by the elliptical, and not long after (possibly 1832?) the rectangular came along. It finally achieved supremacy in the classical music world, while elliptical remains the norm in the Irish music world and circular in the Early Music world.I.D.10-t wrote:Am I the only one that likes a round embouchure?
