I need to find a Bach mouthpiece to produce a classical sound on a Fluegelhorn. I've been using the Bach 1 1/2 C but I'm switching mouthpieces on all of my horns since I feel pretty much in shape now. Yes I stopped playing for a few months... hmm or is it years??
Since I sold some of my equipment years back I can't remember what moutpiece I used before to produce a nice big dark Fluegelhorn classical sound. I mean I want to produce the sound of Fluegelhorn NOT the sound of a trumpet on a Fluegelhorn. Please notice that I DID NOT post this in the Jazz section because I'm not looking for that type of sound.
If you're curious about from what to what I'm switching to here it is.
Going from a
Trumpet Bb and C
Bach 1 1/2C (27 bore, 24 backbore)
to a
Bach 1 underpart, 1C rim (22 bore, 24 backbore)
Piccolo Trumpet
Stomvi 5e
to a Bach 7E (25 bore, 117 backbore)
Fluegelhorn
Bach 1 1/2 C to (??bore, ??? backbore)
Any suggestions on what bore and backbore?
Well thanks guys for your help! |

| Try the Curry flugel pieces with the Mt. Vernon rim! Even his med./shallow gives my yamaha a rich real flugel sound. (just my opinion) |
