This video changed my flute life. My flute life started when I was about 15 hears old, already had decided that I would bevome a professional saxophone player later and thought it would be smart to double on flute for bigband and horn sections.. Somehow I was always struggling on flute but neither I nor the theachers I had throughout the years knew why I was so tensed during playing. Cramps in shouder, neck, arms, breathing problems, while never having problems on saxophone or clarinet. I only could play relaxed when laying on my back. When laying down jutting the jaw is very unnatural. It was was a mystery! Jutting the jaw means pushing the jaw forward, just as you do it (a bit) on saxophone to get the right embouchure on the mouthpiece. Watching this video only 2-3 years ago helped me to become a much better flute player. Thank you Jennifer Cluff for explaining! Read her blog
