Video producer: please tell me why you put that stuff at the beginning of the video. Is it related to the subject of interest?
nobody has mentioned this yet so i thought i would bring it up. what's with the intro?
Thank you for these general guidelines for mouthpiece fitting. It seems to confirm what I observed. I have large lips and I was playing on a Bach 5g mouthpiece with a Bach 42t trombone, and I had a lot of problems changing partials. I ordered a 3g mouthpiece and the very first day I am already playing much better, even in higher ranges, though I need to develop endurance and range. It feels so much better to play and the way it opened up my ability to phrase was great. The sound difference is incredible.
In terms of mouthpiece brand and size for my euphonium, I've always loved my Bach 6 1/2 Euphonium, it's always been the most comfortable to me
I use a Griego CS5 when playing euphonium. For playing large bore trombones I use a Schilke 51D
Schilke 51D is what I'm using on baritone, mine is a small shank and it just didn't work well with my 607F. I've gone to Monette mouthpieces on both my medium and large bore trombones, I know they're expensive and don't work well for everybody but they work great for me.
Yes, I would like you to comment on tuba, since we are related to euphonium. Thanks, I really enjoy your presentations.
This week I'm shooting a video with Michael Parker who is the owner and creator of Parker mouthpieces. He will explain everything about rims, cups, shanks for all the brass instruments, that will answer all the questions you have my friend!
its all up to the job you have to do. myself, I use 3 different mouthpieces depending on the job. I use a warburton 6SV ANCHOR GRIP FOR MY SCRESM WORK AND A DEEPER MOUTHPIECE FOR MY IMPROV WORK. IF IM DOING ANY CONCERT BAND WORK OR SOLO WORK ,I WANT A WANT A WARMER SOUND.
If it's possible, could you talk about the tuba mouthpieces? Just curious as to what your opinions are
Will do buddy!
I agree
I second that :-)
I third that
@@Matonizz you never did it.
Thanks for the video. On your follow up Videos please could you talk about cup depth and inner rim sharpness also maybe a bit on avoiding excessive mouthpiece pressure
I will my friend! Already got the vid scheduled!
I know you probably have a lot of suggestions, but for the youngsters, braces, retainers, or loose/lost teeth maybe?
Depends how old are they! Under 7 I would not recommend playing brass instrument in general, in regards to braces, hard to suggest anything since I've never ran into anyone playing brass with braces. Loose/lost teeth, very tricky subject again. Front teeth are always the key. I might do a video at some point but with all fairness I don't even know whether my suggestions on this would be qualified at this point due to lack of experience. Will do some research though! Good point buddy! Thanks for watching!
Braces I have braces and i had them for a while but i don't find to much difference in playing just it changes it by the slightest amount
Interesting. Thanks for feedback, have never really though much about braces and playing, will have to take your word on that
I will come back when i get my braces off and see/feel the difference.
Yeah, let me know, would be interesting to hear!
Wtf the Intro
Was just wondering about your opinion on endurance building.
Should i practice (as everyone says) ---> long tones or do lip bends as you mentioned. But I'm not sure if i do lip bends correctly because i do not experience "burning corners".
I mostly struggle with playing long phrases.
Great video as always a lot of useful information...
Will address this as well buddy!
Useful part starts at 1:00
This was uploaded on my birthday. 🎊🎊🎉👏
Happy Bday Bro!!! And I will def make one, might even try to get Craig Knox to share his thought ;) Thx for watching!
Tuba mouthpiece selection please ?
You say this video is primarily for Trombone, Euphonium and Baritone. Would I be able to group in Bass Trombone with this or would you consider that a "larger mouthpiece"? If you so, could you maybe make a video on the Bass Trombone mouthpieces. I'm looking at Denis Wick and trying to compare but it would be lovely to have your input! Thank you!
That size are you looking at buddy? And will definitely make a vid on this!
+Matonizz Denis Wick 1AL is what I was looking at. Thank you immensely!
No probs buddy! That size mouthpiece or similar or larger sizes your thick part will be inside the cup anyways since you have much more space. With larger mouthpieces (bass trombone, tuba) the important thing becomes not leaving too much of a gap in-between your lips in order not to loose control and agility, unlike euphonium/trombone/baritone/trumpet/horn where precision of centering is a bit trickier. However, I will do a colab video with couple of other legit professional players to give more specific advise for bass trombonists and tuba players. Will try to get this arranged asap. Be patient and thanks for watching bud!
+Matonizz That would be fantastic! Thank you! I look forward to that video!
Large shank vs medium shank? What's the difference in tone if any?
What the hell? What that weird intro?
Where did you learn this stuff. I didn't teach you. It's exactly what I teach. I would add the key is CONTROL. If you can't control your choice it's too big. It goes for width and depth. God's continuous blessings for you brother in Christ. Happy Birthday too!
You learn these things and methods through playing many years and improving. I have been playing for over 17 years now and to be fare most of the tips I share including this one comes from my personal playing experience and observing other people with their own issues. I am glad you enjoy the videos my friend, I will cover more details about everything including mouthpieces as I upload more content. Best of luck my friend!
WOOOOOOW...WATCHING THIS ON 4 OF JULY!!!!!!!
Where to buy Perantucci nozzle for tuba
Any luck on a Tuba mouthpiece video? Thanks for the great videos!
Love the cat
whats that version of you needed me at the very beginning of the video?! would love to know it
I need you're help on mouthpiece sizes. So I play the marching baritone at my school, which has a small shank mouthpiece. The mouthpiece is in really bad condition; the end is dented and the place where I put my mouth is corroded with rust. I want to buy the JP374 Sterling Bb Euphonium. It comes with a mouthpiece, but I don't know if that mouthpiece will work on my marching baritone. Also, if the mouthpiece included with the JP374 isn't high quality, I was thinking about buying a steven mead mouthpiece (silver to match the marching baritone), and I was wondering if I should get ultra or non-ultra, and what size steven mead mouthpiece.
Cole Christie If it helps, the JP374 Sterling Euphonium takes a large shank mouthpiece which won't fit your marching baritone since you say it takes a small shank. The JP374 comes with a stock mouthpiece about the size of a 5g to my knowledge(I could be wrong). So a Denis Wick Ultra or the Original Sm Series are great but I would try out either if possible. The dimensions of the two are similar (different throughout such as the shape and thickness of the mouthpiece and rim. Also the SM series contains a barrel backbore while the Ultra has a V-type back bore which enhances different aspects). Either the SM5 or SM5U would be the closest to the stock mouthpiece the JP374 comes with to my knowledge. I advise to try out both because they may have similar dimensions but can feel and perform much differently. It All depends on you though. If you want a new mouthpiece for the marching baritone, consider a small shank as the JP374 would only fit a large shank mouthpiece. I hope this helps. For more information on the specific details and reviews on both of the Steven Mead Series of mouthpieces you can check Dwerden.com in the forums as well.
What is recommended for the flugel horn mouth piece?
Horn mouthpiece sizing
I can feel air coming out of the side of my mouth piece while I'm playing, I play the English baritone horn and use a Denis wick size 4bs how would a stop air escaping at the sides of my mouth? Ive only been on the instrument for about 6 months and was on cornet before that
Mark Watto03 long tones should help
ow my ears the intro y pls help ow
Can trombone mouthpieces be used on a euphonium and vise versa?
Jade Wolf They can be USED, but neither are made for each other. A euphonium mouthpiece works best in a euphonium and a trombone mouthpiece works best in a trombone.
Why can’t they just make a tuba mouthpiece for trumpet, makes me sad I can’t play trumpet very well any more from playing tuba for so long :/
Interesting intro
شكرأ لك
Is euphonium and alto horn are same?
Hi Nurmisha, no, they are not the same. Alto horn is a brass band version of French horn. It has smaller mouthpiece than euphonium and is higher in pitch as well. Hope that helps! Best, Algirdas
Hey man what mouthpiece do you use i dint quite catch it
It's Parker 5G 51D
Is it a LANCE LADUKE one
No, this was a prototype, I've got my own version, it should be out in hopefully not too long. You should be able to find contact details in their website. You can also try to get in touch with Michael Parker directly via facebook.
Matonizz oh ok thx
Hi, sorry for it but it isn't about the video (brw really good video, well done) but can someone give me the name of the intro music? 😅😂 thanks, keep doing bro!

+Matonizz thank you!!!
Yo Skin sure!
+Matonizz ow wait didn't noticed, i meant the song you use in all the intros pf you channel
