Re: Mouthpiece search and reeds

Relax the embouchure, maybe work with how much mouthpiece is in the mouth, and pay attention to the balance of embouchure tension, air support and pressure, the volume you're trying to play at, and so on. If a soft reed goes bad after a day or two, it's probably biting or just too tight an embouchure. But maybe your mouthpiece just needs a harder reed, or if it's a long facing, more cane in the middle of the reed. Different brands of softer reeds have different profiles.
