The Cantesanu Mouthpiece is the result of extensive trials and research. Following the same concepts as the horn I offer when it comes to response and sound, it is an excellent choice for a well rounded mouthpiece. Different in design than most everything else available, the Cantesanu Mouthpiece offers a quick and clean response with a comfortable feel throughout all ranges and dynamics. It slurs easily and has a rich and focused sound. The mouthpiece immediately catches the attention of anyone that gets to try one as it matches well with just about any horn make and model.
For convenience and comfort, it is a two-piece construction. Made of silver-plated Brass, the design of the cup is quite unique; on the outside it has a shape that brings most of the metal mass closer to the top for a deeper sound core. Inside it features a marriage of both the traditional cup & funnel shape, providing the fast responding benefit of a shallow cup without sacrificing the sound of a traditional deep cup. The rim is also silver-plated, and is made of Nickel-Silver as I wanted a denser material to accentuate the cup's design. There are 5 different rim sizes available that fit the cup.
Schilke is a company well known for quality, with a rich tradition in mouthpiece making. I've partnered up with them to have each Cantesanu mouthpiece manufactured to a high standard at their facility. CNC machining and extensive experience ensures each one looks and plays exactly the same.
Professionals from top orchestras as well as students and amateurs have all come to embrace this unconventional new mouthpiece.
