Mouthpieces
Your mouthpiece has the most influence over your sound when it comes to the equipment you choose. As a student, finding a supportive size to start your brass instrument journey is key to your early success. Once your embouchure has formed, it is important to upgrade your mouthpiece to a larger size.
