Saxophone Mouthpieces
What if you Bought a Saxophone and a Saxophone Mouthpiece ...
The saxophone mouthpiece is attached to the instrument and is useful in shaping and producing the sound coming from the instrument. The Saxophone Player blows into the mouthpiece to create vibrations that can produce the sound. It is also helpful in holding the reed in its proper place so it won't flutter while creating a chamber to allow for sound modification which, in turn, makes it possible to create the right tone.
In a saxophone mouthpiece guide, you will see that this component can be classified according to the tone and pitch that it can produce: baritone, soprano, tenor, and alto. Higher notes and pitches are basically produced by sopranos while lower and graver tones are produced with baritones.
The brand of saxophone that you own really doesn't matter when it copes to quality accessories. Conn, Selmer Eb, or Yamaha instruments function all the same, if you don't start with a quality mouthpiece, then the music won't have a chance to "get its voice" regardless of the quality of your saxophone.
Back to the saxophone, in person. If you are truly interested in High Quality, free blowing features and a great intonation and, of course, the Best Quality and rich tone throughout the range of the instrument that you play, these are reasons enough to buy the Very Best for your precision instrument. And high precision it is.
There are numerous parts and dimensions to a Sax Mouthpiece; baffle, tip, lay, rails, chamber, shank, etc. Best thing is to try as many different brands as you have access to then when you find a brand that feels somewhat better than the rest start zeroing in on the particulars such as chamber size, lay opening, etc.
Beginners will start with a #1 or #2 reed. As you get into a more opened mouthpiece and your air support becomes more powerful you'll most likely get a harder reed, maybe #3 or #4. Like shoes, they come in half sizes as well. Again, this requires a lot of experimenting with reed strengths and mouthpiece combinations. You'll know when the right one comes along.
Do yourself (and those who listen to you) a huge favor when you shop for saxophone mouthpieces, always buy for the value and the quality of the mouthpiece - you will never regret it!
