Re: Yamaha CSG powerful enough?

I believe that Loren Kitt (former principal clarinet National Symphony) and Joachin Valdepeñas (principal in Toronto) play[ed] them. There may be others as well but I can’t bribg them to mind.

I’ve played the CSG in orchestras for 11 years and never felt any issue with projection. I’m currently using a MoBa P+ mouthpiece with VD Traditional #3 or Pilgerstorfer Dolce #3.5 and have never played louder.

FWIW, I’ve RECENTLY tried the CSG-III, CSVR and SEVR at the Buena Park Yamaha Ateluer in LA, and still prefer the sound and feel of the CSG. I feel that it is freer or less restrictive than the others. I doubt one would have difficulty playing any of these in an orchestra with an appropriate setup.
