Morgan:

For what it's worth, I play both Balkan folk music and classical music on the same set-up right now.

Ultimately I'd love to be playing the Balkan stuff on a 5JB with a #2 Rico and get the same sound as Ivo Papazov, BUT I still need to sound "legit" for my students and for my classical trio. And my classical sound would be improved by a harder reed and more closed mp. (Not that a Borbeck 11 is the most open, but...)

So, it is possible to get "close enough" with one or the other for most of the general public. But my Bulgarian musician friend says, "Well, you sound ok." And I'm sure if I tried to audition in November for the Minnesota Orchestra, they'd think I sounded like a BRIGHT lightbulb! But for my audiences it works. And for my students it actually works too, somehow...none of them sounds as bright as I do sometimes.

And I do use vibrato in both the Balkan stuff and in the Kreisler stuff my trio does...
