 New Mouthpiece Maker
Author: Klarinette 
Date:   2003-03-25 20:39

Recently, I tried some moutpieces from a new maker named Ramon Wodkowski who studies at Yale with David Shifrin. They are some of the most precisely measured mouthpieces I've ever seen. I was struck by the ease in which they play combined with the beauty and projection of their sounds. Since then I've used one as my primary mouthpiece and haven't looked back. Nearly everyone who has tried my set up since then loves it, too. Since I'm so pleased, I thought I'd let everyone know to look out for this guy since I would expect he will start producing them for the clarnet public soon.

I have tried these mouthpieces as well and think they are absolutely wonderful. I do not know how to contact him, but I would assume that Yale has some sort of online student directory.

Please share this Mr. Wodowski's contact information if anyone has it.
Is he a graduate student, visiting, phone #, email?

Regards

ramonwodkowski@hotmail.com is the last address I have for Ramon (he's an acquaintance of mine - I think he was a year or two ahead of my son at Interlochen).

I will remember that in the future. I don't think Roman minded my jesture to drum up business for him. Regardless, thank you for bringing this to my attention.

Roman contacted me and was seriously upset with what you did. I hadn't even seen it at the time I was contacted.

Many thanks for the kind words. To avoid any more uncertainty, I can be reached at ramonwodkowski@hotmail.com until I have a web page up in the next few weeks. Thanks

Ramon
