 Re: The new La Vecchia mouthpiece

For the record - Yes I designed the Grand Concert reed lines at Rico. It is not a secret that I left Rico because of them using Pesticides. I'd still be there if they didn't use these stupid chemicals/poisons. What a shame. I was also in charge of the Mitchell Lurie line of reeds and I beefed those up for Mitchell. He was a GREAT man to have a as friend. Fellow player can email me if you need info. I was also in charge of the Hemke alto and soprano sax reeds. A really good guy, now dead, was in charge of the tenor reeds; Joe Spang. When Joe was there, these were the good days at Rico when Rico washed the reeds at 160 degrees using sodium barcarbonate, (baking soda). I was also in charge the Eb and German clarinet reeds.

I should be going to court finally, after over 20 years from filing the lawsuit, suing Rico for wrecking my life. Every day I live in pain. I've had some surgeries because of this. Somehow Rico remains in business. I hope this case will be over with by May, about 4 or so months from now.

I can also make the Legere reeds play much better. I will adjust reeds for players, but I don't like doing this. The reeds are just made wrong.
