Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone has tips for sticking with thin reeds and avoiding "outgrowing" them. Classical players tend to "graduate" through increasing thicknesses, and thinner ones are too "buzzy" for them. I don't want to do that, as I want the more flexible playing that jazz, Roma, Turkish folk, and Klezmer people enjoy.
Background: I double lip, and I've heard that favors thinner reeds anyway. But I also plan on doing a lot of single lip, too, now. I also like to play a variety of dark styles, like modern orchestral, Eastern European folk, etc. My mouthpiece is a Vocalise H (big dark sound) with a Rovner Dark ligature. Dark is my thing. No bright Kenny G. crap.
