| | Mouthpiece Meditation, Part 2 |
 | | Giardinelli Music Company offers a "Tone Intensifier." It is a metal ring which slips over the shank of the mouthpiece and snugs in tight under the cup by friction. |  | | While all of this is going on, the trombonist is (or should be) listening to the sound and sorting through the physical sensations resulting from these actions. |  | | Tubist Ellis Wean of the Vancouver Symphony has what may be the answer. |

| | Mouthpiece Meditations, Part 1 |
 | | One had three different mouthpieces, depending on which kind of music he was playing, and which trombone (bass or tenor). |  | | DON'T play a mouthpiece that OTHER people think will help you to play the way THEY want you to." Tom Ervin, Professor of Music at the University of Arizona, wrote "the mouthpiece MUST be comfortable, like shoes, or there will not be [a] happy ending." |  | | The wrong mouthpiece can cause terrible intonation, endurance problems, accuracy problems, poor sound and poor articulation. |

| | Asymmetric Mouthpiece Testimonials |
 | | I played parts of a bunch of songs with both mouthpieces, and the family consensus was I sounded better on the 3C+ on all except perhaps one passage where the Opera's tone just seemed to fit it better. |  | | I used to switch from my Schilke in jazz and marching to a Bach 1 1/2 C mouthpiece for concert band. |  | | At the end of the spring semester, I recorded one of my arrangements (an arrangement of a Lew Soloff tune, to be released on an upcoming album featuring him) with the UTA Jazz Orchestra, played the feature on trumpet, and pulled an F# on the end. |

| | Choosing the trumpet brasswind mouthpiece |
 | | The best advice I have for you is: find a mouthpiece which is (A) comfortable (B) has a sound (when YOU play it) that is appropriate for the music, and (C) learn to play it!!!!!!! |  | | "Find a mouthpiece which feels comfortable on your chops, allows good "tonguability" in the low register, and "sounds" the way YOU want to sound - then learn to play it". |  | | No orchestral conductor would tolerate that kind of "sound" in a symphony orchestra. |

| | Mouthpiece Pressure |
 | | Even Phil Farkas admitted that what he said in The Art of Horn Playing about mouthpiece pressure wasn't exactly what he meant. |  | | Finally, I would like to clarify some of the recent discussion on this list of the infamous passage about mouthpiece pressure in Phil Farkas' "The Art of French Horn Playing". |  | | If you had ever played 1st horn successfully in a large symphony orchestra (which I suspect you havn't) you would not write such condescending (and misleading!) drivel. |

 | | Therefore, it is not generally feasible to change mouthpieces from one cup design to another to suit the immediate demands of the music. |  | | But if all his performances don't require extreme high-register playing, he will use a deep cup mouthpiece in order to obtain a more sonorous and desirable sound. |  | | A mouthpiece having a shallow (low volume) cup allows higher notes to be played more easily but produces a more metallic tone quality throughout the complete range of the instrument. |

| | Trombone Mouthpiece Mass Description and Information |
 | | In a large, or good sounding room, "minor discrepancies" would not be audible 8-10 feet away, but can be heard readily in a small room. |  | | Many players own several mouthpieces (and perhaps several instruments) and use various ones depending on what they are playing and the style and sound that is called for at the moment. |  | | This would seem to make a "more mass" mouthpiece less desirable for playing jazz/swing but perhaps more desirable for ensemble, concert band, and orchestral playing. |

| | Selecting a Mouthpiece |
 | | Furthermore, the same mouthpiece and instrument can actually sound different when played by two different people, Differences in the formation of lips, teeth, jaws, not to mention breath control and experience, all contribute to differences in the sound. |  | | If you are a discriminating teacher, player, or music merchant, it is most desirable that a particular mouthpiece fit the instrument EXACTLY. |  | | When a nodal point of a vibration (sound) hits this gap or depression the result is the same as if the mouthpipe had a sudden bulge. |
