Face=embouchure.

That he can triple-tongue that low and that loud, to me, means that his embouchure works very efficiently. I've played this part on this piece and was never able to make it sound that clean, no matter how hard I worked on it.

I've heard some of his youtubes and he just makes it look effortless.

I was not talking about his looks, but his sound.

That was excellent, thank you for posting it!

Best,

Happy Eastern!
