First published in 1971, Roy Steven's Embouchure Self-Analysis and The Stevens-Costello Embouchure Technique (Complete) is considered to be the authoritative text on embouchure analysis incorporating physical laws, scientific principles and muscular physiology in establishing a consistent embouchure for the brass player. This revised second edition by the original editor, William Moriarity, reflects the timelessness and relevance of this book.
