One practical reason for having two bocals is that they can easily get damaged - so having a spare can save the day.

Also the different lengths affect the tuning - like different length clarinet barrels.

Initially use the one which makes it easiest to play in tune then, when you get more experienced, experiment to see how various registers of the instrument sound with the different bocals.

Good luck

Ian
