Hey Manny,

Currently, I am playing a Bach 1B and used to play on a 1.5B. I recently picked up the 1.5B again and noticed that the tonguing on it is easier. How do I know if the 1.5B is a better "tonguing" mouthpiece for me or if I just have not adjusted to tonguing on the 1B?

I, also, know that some people choose different mouthpieces for different pieces that they are playing on, while others stick with the same mouthpiece all the time. What are your thoughts on changing mouthpieces? Sometimes I don't notice that much of a difference between different size mouthpieces other than comfort. Thoughts?

Thanks for all that you do...
