Mouthpiece Silencer Review

If you’ve ever had people complain about your mouthpiece exercises making a horrible noise, this Jazz Lab mouthpiece silencer for saxophone is going to transform your practice.

In his book Developing a Personal Saxophone Sound, Dave Liebman says ‘the closer you get to the source of the sound, the greater the effect on the overall sound’. In other words, how you breathe, form your embouchure and play the mouthpiece has a much greater effect than the type of mouthpiece or the saxophone you play. You can check out this lesson here to view some exercises on just the mouthpiece. If you purchase the silencer you also get a small booklet with exercises and a DVD! The silencer is currently available from sax.co.uk
