 RE: alto mouthpeice again

I cannot tell you anything about the Selmer mouthpiece. I play a Vandoren 5RV alto mouthpiece on my basset horn and am quite happy with it. The sound is quite mellow and focussed, but it cannot in any way be described as powerful. The lyre designation, however, indicates a more open facing and would probably provide a bit more volume. As for tuning, the 5RV is spot on, and the articulation is good using a Rovner-type ligature. For some reason, it was not very good with a metal ligature.
