I have a very talented 5th grade clarinet students who has just discovered her grandfather's alto sax (a Conn Constellation, from the '50s her mom thinks) and will be adding it to her arsenal. The Brilhart mouthpiece that's in the case is badly damaged so she'll need a new one. I don't want to send her mom after an expensive custom piece until the student is a little more experienced - she's already spending a small fortune getting the Conn overhauled. I've only taught beginner sax students in a school setting using rental instruments, mostly Yamahas with 4C mouthpieces. Does anyone have a favorite entry level alto mouthpiece?
I'm seeing modern Brilhart Ebolins and also a Fobes Debut alto mouthpiece online in the same mid-$30s price range. I have a Brilhart Tonalin, an old one, that I like for tenor and have no experience with Clark's sax mouthpieces, although I like the clarinet Debut. Is either one of those a reasonable choice?
