 Re: Cor Anglais reeds...

Once, long ago, I tried to use my EH reeds on another person's instrument.
It did NOT work: no matter how hard I tried or what adjustments I made, the pitch was low.

I think the bocal does have something to do with pitch; it could be its inner diameter or its length or both, even the thickness of its walls.

Sometimes I think reed makers should specify the instrument, i.e. either state the reed was made to play on an x-model Loree, or Marigaux, or specify what brands/types of instruments the reed will definitely work on... because I'm SURE that makes a difference.

There is always the factor of the Player, but so many technical variables come into play.

I am sure, though, that you will eventually find the standard that works for you (and your instrument/bocal) and that this problem will fade into the past. In the meantime, keep trying and don't lose your patience or your persistence.
