Greetings. When playing klezmer, I often use my usual setup, with a slightly softer reed. Most of the time, though, I prefer to use my crystal mouthpiece. Among other things, I find that this gives me a little more flexibility when it comes to ornamentations such as smears and whatnot, as well as a nice vibratto. I don't think one needs a special or drastically different setup just to play klezmer. I would use my crystal mouthpiece for general all-around playing, but it seems to be a bit too bright souding in certain situations and doesn't really blend well. -- Nate Zeien
