    So as a soon to be freshman in college who is planning on jumping into performance on clarinet, how often are 5RV lyres used in college settings. I happen to have one from a while back that I just got around to playing on, and I love it, but I also don't want to seem like I need a beginner/intermediate mouthpiece to play

    • @fatlessauto3
      @fatlessauto3 4 года назад +5

      As a freshman in college, most people won't judge you based on what mouthpiece you use, but rather what tone you can get from that mouthpiece. If the 5RV Lyre is giving you the sound AND playability you are looking for, go for it!

    • @luisgomez8020
      @luisgomez8020 4 года назад +4

      ​@@fatlessauto3 Yes, it does not matter what you play on, just make sure it works for you and the sound you are getting is what you are wanting. Make sure you play on a mouthpiece that gives YOU, the most amount of flexibility on all registers of the Clarinet. I'm in my last year of my undergraduate and I've been playing on the Black Diamond for most of my degree. It has a wonderful tone in my opinion and it wont destroy your wallet. However, some of my other studio classmates have tried my set up and can't get around it. If you are not quite satisfied with the sound you are getting, ask around and see if someone can lend you a mouthpiece to see if you enjoy it. Trial and error is the best way to shop for a new mouthpiece. Hope this helps, and best of luck.

      More difficult to play, sounds better. Used to be a huge favourite where I live (and worldwide, I believe) some 20 years ago and I know it lost a lot of popularity, but I'm a little surprised I haven't seen it at all in this video. Wonderful sound, but you gotta practice, practice, practice, to the point that my ex prof, who still adores it, finally switched to a B45 after he got kids and started teaching in two schools and couldn't practice regularly himself anymore. The B45 he says he can pick up any time he likes and it will play fine (and he makes it sound a lot nicer than this video).
