How Do You Choose Reeds for a Tenor Saxophone? Choosing reeds for a Tenor Saxophone requires patience, experimentation, and self-awareness. A player must consider reed strength, reed material, reed cut, and reed brand. They must consider their mouthpiece, their embouchure, and their musical style. They must test several reeds and break them in gently. They must maintain them carefully and rotate them regularly. Through this process, a player discovers the reeds that support their tone, their control, and their artistic expression. #TenorSaxophone www.musicalinstrumenthub.com/tenor-saxophone
