During the covid-19 in lockdown I had dedicated a lot of time to getting up to speed on my soprano and was becoming increasingly disillusioned with my mouthpiece.  A quick email exchange with Joe and my ‘piece was sent off to him for a rework.  I now have it back and I must say I am hugely impressed with what he has done with my quite basic Bari mouthpiece. The new setup seems to offer more of everything- cleaner, faster articulation, wider dynamic range & a potential for harmonic jumps which i specialise in on tenor but had never considered feasible on sop before.  The bottom line and my ultimate test for any mouthpiece- is it fun & inspiring to play? Yes it is, enormously so. My family are already sick of me sliding off for yet another quick go on my soprano. Many thanks
