Well thought and explained about the deep relaxed embouchure, congrats for a very important lesson I hope many beginners (and already playing and frustrated) players will watch and adopt! There is a catch in Pucker, or Duck-Lips (Gussow), which prevents people from doing this, or the Gindick relaxed "don't fight your harp" thing. Some harps, namely the Marine Band, but also other models built as sandwich, are very sharp on the top plates edge, and as much as you are careful, it will cut into your lips and tongue. The ONLY way to get around this without sanding or replacing the damn thing with a LO or SP20 or some other smooth harp, is to play in Pucker - over those plate knives. Unfortunately many players in this area start with a Blues Harp, which is very nice in tone and feel for advanced players, but for beginners it is a frustrating harp, leading to poor technique and dropping off playing until getting another harp. The 4 embouchures I teach for single notes are lip-block (tilt and push, the lower lip blocks side holes), tongue block, tongue to front (U-Block) and pucker (or Duck lips) - all are great and usable in different situations, and any player can choose the default or use them all, when knowing the pros of each embouchure. Moving between lip-block and pucker will give you single-chord rhythms, only tilting the harp down and up. Moving between U-Block and Tongue-Block will give you full range control in large jumps (tongue switch and middle), and only using TB will give you low or high vamps with solos, octave splits and warbles. Most important thing is to relax, play slowly and connect to the reeds - its not about the blow and draw, its about moving the reeds - and when someone follows this particular video to the step, they will achieve full control over the reeds, even with tongue movement (piston) only - without inhaling or exhaling - just because the embouchure has enough contained energy to move the reeds (of course if the harmonica is airtight, so a beginner harp is critical to develop and control technique)

Thanks Zvika! Yes, tin sandwich protruding reed plates hurt the lips. Agreed! I make no distinction between "Lip blocking" and "lip pursing" except that "pursing" is a bad word because it conjures up the wrong image. I know Norton Buffalo was a u-blocker, but in my experience, that technique limits people. In my opinion the 2 techniques that are valuable for isolating notes are lip blocking and tongue blocking.

Look up Bernoulli’s principle. A restriction in airflow increases the velocity of the air. An increase in air velocity cause an increase in pitch. Kinda like your finger over the end of a garden hose, you restrict the flow which causes a small amount of water to move really fast. If your tongue, lips or mouth cavity create a restriction of air flow, the air velocity will increase. Inversely if you remove restriction, like dropping your tongue or opening your throat you decrease velocity and pitch. That’s how the bending of notes works. I teach this to all my duck calling students on how to manipulate pitch 😊
