 Re: 440Hz mouthpiece on 442Hz tuning

A barrel would be a great start to playing at 442. I know for a while I had to use the stock 65 barrel to play at 440 on my Tosca Greenline. I was at the time playing a 440 M30 Lyre. I tried out two Behn barrels 65, and 66. The 66 was the one I went with due to the unique taper in that barrel. It also freed up response as well that instrument.

The biggest confusion I found with mouthpieces is the advertisement of saying that a mouthpiece is tuned at 440 or 442. I played pretty flat on some models Vandoren 440 mouthpieces. A good way to playing at either pitch is checking with a tuner. A better way at solidifying is by practicing with a drone by tuning each not at either 440 or 442. This will help identify pitch tendencies and intonation accuracy. When I play music, I am concentrated on the music and do not have time to read music and check a tuner at the same time.
