There was a scheduled live television event between President Reagan and the first teacher to be in space the day after the launch of Challenger. I don't believe anyone at NASA thought the frigid temperatures at launch time were within an acceptable parameter.



Hey, I actually took my ideal mouthpiece and reed and placed it on a student's horn just the other day. The pads looked like hell, there was a slight leak in the top joint (a poor seal was indicated) and the student kept apologizing for it being plastic (it is a student line Yamaha).


When I played it, I was nearly floored at what a great sound it got and how in-tune it played. If I were the least bit "in the game just for myself," I'd have made an offer for that clarinet on the spot!!!!!


So I guess it's 99% the mouthpiece.
