Squeaky mouthpiece... advice?
I am borrowing a new mouthpiece from my teacher. I am used to playing on jazz mouthpieces, as well as metal mouthpieces, but this is like something I have never even played before. I'm just wondering... it squeaks a lot right now, mostly in the higher register, but sometimes in the low as well. Is there anyhting that I can do to my emboucheur, or air stream to get rid of the squeak... I know that it's not the reeds, because they work on other mouthpieces... Also, this new mouthpiece has a baffle, something that I'm not used to... I'm basically wondering if it will ever stop squeaking, and thus, if it would be a good idea to get it (I love the tone that I get when it's not sqeaking)
