 Re: T sax reeds on bass clarinet

I have compared Alexander Superial Classique Tenor reeds and the same make/brand of bass clarinet reeds and there are distinct differences that on my set up make the true bass reeds more advisable. However, the tenor reeds produce a very full and super smooth piano and mp dynamic, and create a gutsy if rather uncouth forte. It's when trying to go louder that it all can fall apart and tonal coherence is lost. The bass reeds seem more contartined and do not unlitmately go as loud, but they stay a great deal more coherent up to the top volume levels. The quieter notes are not so well padded and smooth however, though they usually still work well enough.
