Re: C* is not cutting it
I stumbled upon this thread and found it interesting,,,so the sax is not square therefore the mouthpiece chamber should not be square!!! i wish to ask is the sax horse shoe in shape ? then why use a horse shoe shaped piece? Is a clarinet square in shape ,,yet the best pieces are square in chamber ,,,,,,,here is even better does a sax have a baffle ,,,,then why should a piece have one,,,,,is the sax not brass ,,,,then all pieces should be brass ,,,,and NY meyers in ebonite should be worthless!!! ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,The S80 C* is the most used classical mouthpiece and not for no good reason ,,,it blends a good mix of control with some bite to it ,,,,,,,,,,,,,unforunately it must be played with very little lip pressure ,,,,it will not tolerate a tight biting embouchure ,,it has to be played completely open or almost ,,,,,very few players actually play this way ,,,,,,,,,one must learn to play the bore not the reed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
