 Re: Ligatures affect tone--demonstration

I've always thought that the point about ligatures is not that they don't make a difference with a given reed – they do, in my opinion – but that given two different ligatures, A and B say, that give different results with reed 1, you can usually find reeds 2, 3 such that, pretty much, A1=B2 and B1=A3.

I sometimes switch ligatures, not because the one I'm going to is 'the better ligature', but because it's 'the better ligature for what I currently want from that reed'.

In that regard, it's worth noticing that the Schubert Octet is different from the Nielsen Concerto, and one would choose different setups to play them.
