Selmer S80 mouthpieces sound very good on soprano sax. You'd probably want
about a C**, given that your clarinet mouthpiece is fairly open. I use a
Yamaha 4C because I'm a cheapskate and find it to be very responsive. It
also gives that sort of oboe-like quality that you may or may not like on
soprano sax.

If you have to mic a saxophone, the rest of the band is too loud.
