Re: reed selection

Author: graham

I have four mouthpieces I can use with my most regular pair, and I tend to select them for different types of group (e.g. orchestra v. chamber) rather than just to accommodate reeds. That said, I am able to match the reeds better by allocating them to a mouthpiece that fits. I also find a reed that starts out well on one mouthpiece can graduate to usefulness on one of the others as its characteristics change when playing. But, awkwardly, one of my mouthpieces seems to go better with Glotins while the others (or at least two of them) are happier with Zondas, so that does reduce the above mentioned flexibility somewhat.
