G&A alto sax mouthpiece by Eddie Gofman, Barkley Brazil -Verdot 8 and Malbec 7 , and Beechler Bellite Custom 7.

Great tune (Sunny) to showcase your immensely beautiful sound! It's the G&A by a mile, IMHO. The Beechler is a respectable second. What a treat to hear all of the expressiveness you brought to each piece! Thanks!

Hello Lambros, nice to hear from you here ! I will do more videos soon with the G&A by Eddie Gofman , who by the way is a very talented instrument maker and he is part of the Emeo Team. I am currently playing Verdot 7. I just posted a new video with this fantastic mouthpiece by Barkley Brazil. Check it out ! Greetings!!

Hey boss I’m new to playing so can’t really pick out notes by ear. Any chance you wrote these licks down and can send to me?
What an astonishing tone you have! It's so damn vibrant and full of overtones, it's really quite amazing.

All the mouth pieces sounded brilliant and that is all down to the excellent Sax Player ... that is you Felicity 🎷
I just love the sound u created ...and the improvisation ...the grooves. Just impressive
They all sound great, but the Verdot is my favorite! You Rock!!!

Thank you so much for sharing with us ! You are amazing ! And you sound great on all of them ! I think that I liked sound of Beechler and G&A just a little bit more, because they sounded warmer to me, especially G&A. Thank you for always being an inspiration, you are wonderful ❤️

Thank you very much for your lovely message! 💐 I appreciate it very much 🙂❤️ Yes, G&A was my favorite one too ! 🙂 I love that warm sound too ! 😊🙌🏻 Also I was very excited about the material of G&A mouthpiece; antibacterial material Copper 3D. It has been mainly used for production of the medical devices, but even NASA started using it.
Eu assisto 10× esse vídeo e não me canso. Realmente você toca muito. Meus parabéns. Vejo que já tem meses que foi gravado, mesmo assim, vale apenas ver de novo. Você ganhou mais um inscrito.

I'm glad to see his channel again. I thought it was gone for awhile. My favorite by far was #2 (with the 8 tip opening). You really seemed to be "on it" with that mpc.
Mais uma vez você calou nossa voz, e ativou apenas nossos ouvidos para ouvir esse belo toque de seu saxofone, você é a rainha do sax Parabéns. , vamos nessa SP, BA, Brasil
Todo exquisito!! Saludos desde Lima-Perú
Great playing! Thanks for the revjew.
questo assolo mi ma emozionare tantissimo, hai mutamenti della personalità, energia, linguaggio, ad ogni cambio di tonalità. Il suono è affascinante grazie a te ed alle imboccature di nuova tecnologia ed alle legature che mostri e commenti.

They all sound good. I like the Verdot 8. I blow a Beechler Bellite 8 on Alto for seven years. It is a wild screamer - not for beginners. On Tenor I blow a Berg Larsen s/s 110/2 M (London). I had it for 60 years. Plays anything from hard rock to Getz - very versatile.
Amazing tone on each one mouthpiece, because of great sax player!

Excellent review Felicity. I really like the sound you are getting from the Barkley. I've never heard of that manufacturer before but it's clearly a great mouthpiece - plenty of edge and cut but lots of body as well. I'd love to hear about your recording technique; the standard of production on all of your recordings is first class.

Very intriguing to discover you! I love your playing on Sunny! I was surprised at how good G&A sounded! Beechler has the best core tone and is inviting to hear. Malbec tended slightly flat but good, Verdot most like a Dukoff and amazing potential but may be to bright for modern sax sound.

Interesting. You sound great on all of them. A very contemporary sound. Personally I prefer a darker sound , but for the style you play these mouthpieces sound great
Excelente amiga. Hermoso sonido. Para mi beechler. Saludos
Thanks for the great video Felicity! You sound great on all of them! May I ask, did you EQ the sax channel much, and tweak it between the different mouthpieces? Now I have Sunny in my head 😍

Thank you very much for your kind reply Brendan. I used the same EQ and I add a little bit of reverb. I recorded my solo to the same channel so all mouthpieces are having the same EQ and reverb. As well I used the same reed (Vandoren Java red cut 2 and half )

Oh yes , definitely! I was actually very surprised to hear the result of this recording. Because one thing is to hear by your ear and got some impressions, and then actually hear your sound from the recording. I am definitely going to switch to Barkley as I mentioned in my video and I am looking forward to record some new songs ! 😊❤️
Come sempre bellissima!
Very nice! I was really impressed with the 3d printed one. So many of them have a very fuzzy sound that I imagine comes from them not being hand finished. I also like that your sax has rolled tone holes. Which brand is it?

You sound more confortable on all metal mpcs... I was impressed by the Barkley gold one, wide range of expression even if I could tell that the Beechler is 'your' mpc. Thanks for the video
