Saxophone

We have developed the „Classic“ saxophone mouthpieces in collaboration with Joachim Rinke, who teaches at the Frankfurt Conservatory. There are the tip openings 5, 5*, 6, 6* and 7 for alto and tenor. The mouthpieces with larger tip openings being designed specially for big bands. The „Classic“ mouthpieces are also excellent suitable for Jazz musicians. They have a big sound and even in the higher ranges are firm, light and soft, even in the flageolet. The mouthpieces have real substance, are stable as regards intonation and are particularly reed friendly and they also offer a very good alternative to metal.
No. 6 with an opening of 1,80 mm can be recommended as an all-round model and is also suitable for modern styles of playing. It has a sure response, excellent intonation along with a balanced and full sound, says Claus Raumberger, journalist of music and editor of „The Saxophone“ in Germany.



 

Especially for students we have developed with Michael Unger of „Talking Sax“ and eduactionalist of music, a mouthpiece, the 4* Alt Classic, with an opening of 1,50 mm. It has an easy response and is very suitable for beginners.
We have developed a special „JAZZ“ line for jazz music. These mouthpieces have a high baffle and produce that much treasured edgier and brighter jazz sound. On top of that, enlarging the chamber has also made the sound fuller. Our recomendation: the Jazz 7 Tenor. On-going development of the „JAZZ“ alto mouthpieces in collaboration with Michael Unger of „Talking Sax“ and educationalist of music, has resulted in substantial improvements. Here we recommend the Jazz 7* Alto.
We have also re-newed our mouthpieces for soprano together with Michael Unger . The 6* Sopran is particularly popular among other facings.
