Christelle's name is Christelle Berthon. I assure you she uses multiple embouchures. More importantly, she can overblow so effortlessly that you usually can't tell she's doing it - which is the mark of true accomplishment in that skill. She plays beautifully in many styles and in so doing has developed a unique style of her own. Mark Hummel said he thought she was a cross between Lee Oskar and Howard Levy. She'd be the first to admit she doesn't see herself at their level - but I think the comparison is insightful.

(Of course ALL of her tone comes from her microphone...... ;)
