This video is more on how to build your style I think. If that's what you mean, then this is fine. But when you go into the actual sound of the instrument I think a discussion of long tones and overtones is important.
Langston,
I fully agree:
One may never use overtones in a performance, but they are an important part of regular practice.
Long tones go without saying.
Thanks for looking,
