You are correct. Mouthpiece matters… a lot! Some folks seem to be able to play about anything, we mere mortals need to find a great match for us. I’m a pro tenor and alto player, and I probably searched for a year on both of them for the right piece.
Morgan hard rubber for 20 yrs. Many positive comments.
Really super helpful. Just unboxed my soprano tonight (TBH is a frivolous acquisition for a clarinet and alto sax player). Horrendous misery of intonation (yup, your intonation video was really helpful/encouraging). Question: as an alto player yourself, would you see a relationship between your alto and sop MP? E.g. I play my Mk VI (I'm old) with a short shank E soloist. It is perfect for my needs. Is there a correlation between that and what I should start with on the dreaded sop? Thanks a bunch for these videos!. Wow.
Great. Lot's of detail that I'd not seen on other videos. Now I need to put theory to practice. Thanks.
Thank you. Excellent video and very useful for a beginner like me.
Interesting video, thank you.
Equipment matters. A skilled player can play on almost any sax and make it play well. However, a cheap mouthpiece will always sound like a cheap mouthpiece.
