Gleichweit Bass Clarinet Mouthpiece

Gleichweit 19 | Bass clarinet mouthpiece -

The Gleichweit 19 bass clarinet mouthpiece for the Boehm system is designed for musicians who prefer easier response and freer airflow. Its slightly narrower construction reduces resistance, making playing more effortless and flexible.

Despite the lower blowing resistance, the intonation remains highly stable, and the sound retains its depth and clarity. The Gleichweit 19 delivers a well-balanced tone that combines warmth and projection, making it ideal for both solo and orchestral performance.

This mouthpiece is perfect for clarinetists seeking smooth tone production and precise control – requiring less effort while maintaining maximum tonal expressiveness.

Gleichweit Stephan | Bass Clarinet Mouthpiece -

During our journey through Europe at the end of 2022, we had the great pleasure of meeting the extraordinary Belgian clarinetist, educator, and composer Stephan Vermeersch at a clarinet event in Poland. His remarkable approach to the bass clarinet, particularly the effortless beauty and expressive power he brings to the instrument, left a lasting impression on us.

Inspired by this encounter, we set out to develop a new bass clarinet mouthpiece in the French style, designed to meet the tonal and technical demands of modern bass clarinetists. After extensive collaboration and numerous refinements, the Stephan Mouthpiece was born – a highly versatile model perfectly suited for orchestral playing, chamber music, wind ensembles, and solo performances.

With this mouthpiece, we aim to provide clarinetists with greater tonal freedom and expressive possibilities, reflecting the unique style and musical vision of Stephan Vermeersch.
