| Help with mouthpiece selection
Hi everyone,For the past 3 years I been playing mostly (95%) on a bach 1 1/2c megatone,switching to a 10 1/2c for help on hard pieces.Now,for the past month I have been working mostly on pretty advanced works out of Sigmund Herring characteristics etudes,schlossbergs,and Arbans( Fantaisie and variations).including carnival of venice.Now for the past month I been playing almost all 10 1/2c and have really moved my playing up a notch,something that would never been acomplished on the 1 1/2c.I am not a pro player,but I definately don"t want to go back to my old range and endurance so the 1 1/2c is out.What I was thinking was to go with a deeper cup and slightly larger rim since I am having no problem bottoming out and swelling on the 10 1/2c.It just to bright to use for everything. What do you think of say a bach 10b?,it has a slightly larger rim and a much deeper cup.Any other suggestion will be taken very seriously.Thanks for your help |
