What are some good mouthpieces to buy? Currently, I use a Bach 7, which is
good for my tone, but I am starting to think of purchasing a new mouthpiece,
maybe something strong in the upper register.

Anyone out there have an older MY 15 mouthpiece for
sale? Need one immediately. The older ones had a
slightly smaller shaft, which I need for one of my
European horns. The current ones don't fit quite
right.
Thanks.

Generally, a little larger mouthpiece will yield a little fatter tone
on a horn. A small mouthpiece yield
Is this the mouthpiece you're talking about?

I'd be happy to give that one a try at some point in the future. I tend, as
I mentioned, to a flutie sort of sound although that is gradually
diminishing as time goes by.

I would guess that most people prefer gold plated rims with a wet embouchure,
but I actually very much prefer silver. I have soft and luxurious lips that
when coupled with a gold rim gives me a playing surface so slick that I can
hardly set my embouchure. I originally ordered my mouthpiece with
Dillon's sends mouthpieces out for plating.

Yes. The gold plated rim is not any particular advantage unless you
are allergic to silver. some folk are. They are a little more
slippery on the lip than silver. I don't use a wet embouchure.
Current prices are quite low from Giardinelli.com.

That's a very individual thing and depends on your mouth and lip structure. If
you ask anyone, it should be your teacher. I myself find that that a Vincent

There is no mouthpiece, which is strong in the high register. The
player must do it.
Well, admitted, there are some tiny spucknapf mouthpieces with a very
tight bore. You can get the stratospheres with them, but how about the
tone ? It is mere squeaking nothing else.
A bore of 5 mms or just
Hi,
In a couple of weeks I am playing an arrangement for Wind Band of
Orchestral Suite of Bernsteins West Side Story. From Measure 7 or 8 he
writes an number of measures muted. But there is only a little time to get
the mute in. I wonder: Did Berntein really want to have a muted horn or did

Hi Paul:
Look up the Concerto for Two Horns by Francesco Barsanti (1690-1772). A
little later than the Vivaldi pieces, much more of a Handelian flavor. The
music should be available; I played it many years ago with a college
orchestra. It was also recorded (on LP) at least once, as far as I know.
