So,  whatcha gonna call it? "Single note playing" is also tongue block, 
u-block and  corner switching. I've never heard "pucker" called anything else, and 
there  have been very lively discussions of all these techniques on "another"  
discussion group I participate in. It's a term accepted by the vast majority  
of players, and your opinion isn't about to change it. Get over  it.


With my students, I call it "Single Note Embouchure". 
 
Using words like suck, blow, pucker do affect the way people approach their  
harmonica. Change the vocabulary, change the results. I have 15 years of  
successful teaching experience that proves what I say is valid, and that is good  
enough for me to continue on this path.
