Re: German mpc/French Clarinet

I currently play a Viotto German mouthpiece model N1+2 with my Chadash Bb and R13 A with a very good result. He’s making these especially for the French instruments. The only difference from a usual German mp is that it’s 2mm shorter and with a suitable tenon. Intonation is not a problem using this combination. I use White Master 4½.

I have always felt very much “at home” every time over the years when I’ve played German clarinets and mouthpieces. However, the tradition in my country’s orchestras calls for French instruments so I’ve only played German system when performing German chamber music. To have the option to use this Viotto mp to my daily orchestra-French-setup has sort of made my professional life more complete.
