Comparing clarinet mouthpieces - Reserve Evolution vs 5RV Lyre vs BD5

- Well, my takeaways are next:
1. I have to find a way/time to practice, lol
2. With any mouthpiece, I sound as myself. There is a difference, but it's not drastic.
3. If I am in a bad shape, I most likely would prefer DB5 as I feel the most secure with it. Sometimes it feels as not enough colors in tone, but it's still a good tone, covered yet with some projection. Also, it's not really demanding to reed and free to blow and easy to handle.
4. If I am in good shape and have a good reed, probably I would pick up 5RV Lyre
After having better listening, I think BD5 lacks projection and color compared to the 5RV Lyre. 5RV Lyre best of the three and I highly recommend you try M-series.
I bet that manicure of nails contributes to the fast technique of playing and the color of the varnish on them.
Nice to know lol
5rv lyre wins. Little time ago I used to play 5rv lyre with V12 3.5+ but I switched to M30, same reeds which I find more comfortable and has a warmer sound. Now this time I try M15 with V12s 4.0 and 4.5. It's similar feeling to M30 but even easier to blow and easier articulation despite having to play harder strength reeds. Haven't tried the M30 Lyre yet. I'll probably get some more M15s to try and keep the one plays better for me.
Thank you for your input! I believe both M15 and M30 are excellent. I remember the most beautiful sound I heard more than 20 years ago when I studied in a conservatory was from a guy who played M15
@@alexeysclarinet9109 M15 is probably one of the most easy blowing pieces while still covers the sound qualities classical music requires. Let's see how good BD2 will be when It's available. Facing of that will be the same to M13 lyre, just with a deeper response I guess and in 442 and 440hz versions.
Alexey have you tried b45 sound? Did you like? What can you say about this mouthpiece?
I only played B45 Lyre when I was a student. It had a big round sound that projected well.
@@alexeysclarinet9109 thanks 😊
Don't you like metal ligatures?
I have been playing this leather ligature since my student days. It's still working. I know metal ligature can make a difference in response and feeling, but I'll think about it later, when leather ligature will stop working 😊
@@alexeysclarinet9109 It's not a matter of ligature not working. It's a mater of playability. Metal ligatures are better in my opinion. I used to think the opposite, that leather ligatures are better but not true. In my student years I used to play Rovner super revelation, chosen one my teacher had which is very good and still usable. But eventually got a gold Bonade and It's far better, lighter, good center in sound and great emission. I also have other metal ligatures.
@@jimis3167 I agree, I should try good metal ligature
