I'm wondering in the producing of Art does it matter what bending you use. So here it goes: I'm mostly a tongue bender even in tongue blocking my tongue arches for bends.
This is mostly all done in pucker. This must be almost twenty year ago. I'm gettin' old.

Why did you start a new thread on this? MR's thread had it all. Videos, X-rays, insults. Hell, it had me wondering what it is I do when I bend a note and if I have 40 years of bad habits to correct.

In the process of creating art, which technique of bending you use is completely immaterial. One could argue the point that if you have the ability to do all the different techniques then you'll have the ability to express your art in a more fluent way. However the problem with that argument is that you'd still have to have the creative mind and have to have something to say. As always it's the Indian and not the bow.
Personally I think arguing over whether it's the tongue or the throat that is bending, or whether lip pursing/ blocking is inferior or superior to tongue blocking or u-blocking is a pointless exercise. All techniques are valid and all can be utilised to make beautiful noise, if you have the kind of soul that can express that beauty.
