What trombone mouthpiece should I get for marching band?
I am a really strong trombone player and I just got a 3 valve small shank marching trombone (skinny baritone). I got yelled at a lot this past year for sticking out but I don't want to play any softer. I'm looking for really 2 mouthpieces. One for the field (Blend Balance and Volume) and one for the stands (Boisterous and High Range) I'm looking at LOUD brand and I really wont care about money if I can get a perfect mouthpiece. Any Recommendations?
I'm not a trombone player. I am a trumpet player and was in the University of Washington HUsky Band. I think there is an answer to your question in my experience.
I played with 2 mouthpieces. When I wanted to sound full and loud,I used my deep cup Bach 3C. When I wanted to squeeze out the high notes,I used a shallow cup Shulke 13A4A.
The sound on the Schulke is thin and shrill but allows me to play high for much longer periods of time. It cuts like crazy which can be a positive or a negative.
Playing on the Bach, which is really a concert band mouthpiece, gave me the sound I loved but I found my endurance was less in marching band. I played 1st part so I was in the upper staff much of the time.
I think there may be parallels for you in trombone mouthpieces.
Good luck in your search.
