Subj: Reeds (and Eb clarinet mouthpieces)
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 1997 00:30:51 -0500

Please help! I play on Grand Concert Select Thick Blank Reeds (3.5). I
tried to order some because I ran out and I need new ones soon, but the store
I order from (woodwind and the Brasswind) is out, and are backordered, so it
looks like I need to find an alternative. I have an honor band coming up
that I want to get first chair in, so this is an emergency. Could some
people with experience tell me what they think of these brands of reeds, and
how they compare to what I'm used to? Thanks.

Thanks again!

Also, along the same line, could someone please give me input on the
following Eb Soprano Clarinet mouthpieces? I haven't played the Eb for very
long. I own a Leblanc Concerto with a BG Revelation ligature, and Vandoren
reeds.

Much thanks!!!!
