Subj: Facings and tip openings
Date: Wed, 13 Sep 1995 00:53:58 -0400

I'm a HS student who enjoys playing clarinet, and am just curious as to
the different specifications of mouthpieces. Specifically, what do
the facing and tip lengths/openings affect in terms of pitch, reed strength
tone, etc. Please excuse my "newbie" sort of question for all of you out
there who know this stuff. Thanks in advance.
