Professional Mouthpieces for Professional Students!

Help me give my students upgraded mouthpieces to enhance their musical performances in band.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Bimstein's classroom raised $1,240

This project is fully funded

My Project

There are all kinds of mouthpieces students can choose from to use when they are playing their band instruments. When students begin their journey they don't have the experience level or face strength to play the more professional models. After students have several years of experience under their belts they are ready for upgraded equipment to be able to perform better on their instruments.

I would love for my students to perform on professional grade mouthpieces and ligatures to enhance their musical skills!

These items will help them perform at their highest level as they continue to grow a deeper love and appreciation for music.
