Good evening all,
As some of you know, I have been rehearsing Lincolnshire Posy with my college wind ensemble. Unfortunately, being "authentic" to Grainger's wishes by using an actual baritone has led to an issue. I have been finding during rehearsal that blending with other instruments is nearly impossible because the horn is playing flat as a board. I believe it is due to the amount that the mouthpiece sticks out of the receiver. Does anybody have any advice for me? Does either the mouthpiece or receiver need to be modified?
Thanks.
