I learned that Roy Hargrove used the Roditi/Dillon 3c mouthpiece for a while. Does anyone know him? |

Do you mean do we know Claudio Roditi (passed away), Roy Hargrove (passed away), or Dillon (not sure), or the mouthpiece? _________________ Matt Finley https://mattfinley.bandcamp.com/releases

Dillon is for Dillon Music in New Jersey. They used to do custom mouthpieces and custom alterations. Claudio Roditi had a line of custom mouthpieces through Dillon, including rotary trumpet mouthpieces, and he probably gave the mouthpiece to Roy Hargrove while they were both on the Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Big Band in NYC. |

That's great info that ties these names together, and thank you. I still don't understand what the original request means. Since Claudio Roditi is involved, the topic does interest me. _________________ Matt Finley https://mattfinley.bandcamp.com/releases
