      now that i’m learning the blues my teacher suggested switching
      from my classical mouthpiece to a more jazzier/blues mouthpiece.
      So got the old durga back out
      http://www.sax.co.uk/theo-wanne-durga3-blue-art-alto-mouthpiece.ir
      which i haven’t played over a year ago.
      Gonna trial it out for a couple of weeks, see how it goes.
      Tried it out today & it kicks butt, compared to my clasical one,
      volumes gone up 50%, altissimo notes have changed in strength,
      low know gone more tenor but slightly off key, but with more kick.
      Even got more control over the notes and it appears to respond very
      quickly.

      I have got a nadir guardala king, but when i put it in my mouth,
      it feels like i’m putting a thin metal pipe in mouth, cold and
      unfeeling, just can’t take to metal for some strange reason.
