We all know that trumpet players tend to hoard mouthpieces like a dragon with gold, and they also tend to have dedicated mouthpieces for different settings/styles/ensembles/etc., etc. The same doesn't really seem true for MOST euphonium players, but I was curious who here might regularly switch mouthpieces to suit specific needs on your euphonium, what mouthpieces you use for what, if you feel switching back and forth affects your chops in general (in either a negative or positive way).
I personally have always been a one-mouthpiece player. But I've lately been considering switching things up, say, when I need to play trombone parts in a quintet, or lead on pop tunes to "liven" the sound up a bit. So I'm throwing the question out to the forum. What are you's guys's thoughts?
