These contoured alto trombone mouthpieces are designed in two models. The 4.7 is more specifically designed for oratorio or solo playing and the 4.8 is a good choice for ensemble playing. Both are offered in a modified contour which offers the player clarity of sound with crisp articulations.
Stocked models:
4.7 - Created for Alto Trombone, the 4.7 is ideal for oratorio and classic solo alto trombone playing. This mouthpiece enhances the higher overtones for a lighter and brighter concept of tone color. Similar to our 47B.
4.8 - Created for Alto Trombone, the 4.8 is the ideal "all around" alto mouthpiece. Notes center and slot with a pure clarity to the sound. Also useful as an orchestral mouthpiece when blend with larger bore tenors and bass are of utmost importance. Slightly bigger than a 47B.
