Re: Bass Clarinet Mouthpiece

I agree with William on the mouthpiece recommendation. The bass clarinet can be difficult enough, and if you have the money the Grabner or the Fobes should be at the top of your list to try. I play the Grabner mentioned above, and don't think I'll be considering another mouthpiece for some time.

Regarding comments above, I disagree that the bass requires significant differences in embouchure, air support, and everything. I play bass with the same foundational concepts that I play soprano.

That being said, I also play sax without issue with a clarinet embouchure.
