 Re: Ligatures affect tone--demonstration

One other thought:

Whenever I try - compare and contrast - different equipment, I nearly always hear and feel differences. That goes for reeds, mouthpieces, barrels and instruments as well as ligatures. What I always feel happening within a short time of playing on some new piece of equipment is that I begin to accommodate my playing to the equipment in order to get the result that I want to hear.

So, those differences that I can feel when I compare three or four ligatures are eventually minimized or eliminated over time by my choice of reeds and the slight embouchure accommodations I make all the time to get what I want from my equipment. The advantage of one piece of equipment over the other becomes its greater transparency in the process of playing - the one that demands less conscious accommodation on my part is the one I finally gravitate to.
