The 5C is often recommended as a transitional mouthpiece coming out of a 7C. The slightly larger inside diameter offers a lively and rich tone. The 5C is a good efficient crossover mouthpiece.

Your mouthpiece plays a significant role in the sound production on a wind instrument. Your connection to the mouthpiece is personal. The sound on a brass instrument starts with buzzing your lips. This vibration is transferred into the instrument via the mouthpiece which helps focus the lip buzz. The instrument acts as an amplifier, shaping the vibration into your tone. As a result, the mouthpiece greatly impacts your sound and development. Blessing offers a variety of mouthpieces sizes that are educator approved. Your band director or private teacher will be helpful in providing some direction when you are ready to make a change.
