I'm currently working on the Vaughan Williams Concerto for my college audition. I play on a Kalison Daryl Smith model, and use a conn helleberg. I know using a C horn for the Concerto probably isn't the best idea in the world, but its all i can manage right now. ANYWAY! Having to play up in the higher register of the horn on the Helleberg is tiring my lips out pretty quickly, so I was wondering if any of you guys knew of any mouthpieces that would make this higher range easier on my chops, yet still sound good when I go back into the middle and lower registers. Any advice would be well appreciated, thanks!!!
