My Project

My band students have continued to impress me throughout the school year so far. Each week that goes by - I hear new skills, abilities, and greater maturity in their playing.

In order to keep our saxophone students progressing, it is important they have the proper equipment.

Quality mouthpieces are a huge improvement over the "stock" mouthpieces that many students play on. In addition, flexible and locking neck straps are needed for ease of playing - as well as to protect the saxophone from accidentally falling. Lastly, mouthpiece cushions are used to help protect the student's teeth (and the mouthpiece), making a softer surface than hard plastic to hold onto.
