 Re: Warmer VS darker sounding horns

I'm studying with Michele Zukovsky and have tried her Wurlitzers a few times. They are certainly "dark/warm" and very focused, but not dead at all! They have a beautiful ring and life to the sound. However, Michele maintains that you can achieve that kind of a sound on a French instrument too. I'm working on it.

An interesting note: German clarinets are bright instruments paired with dark mouthpieces, and French instruments are dark instruments paired with bright mouthpieces. When you put a German mouthpiece on a French clarinet (which we tried), it's too dark of a combination. It becomes dead sounding and loses that "ping."
