The flesh must adapt to the metal, not the opposite.
It's one of the most valuable lessons I learnt from Larry Meregillano.
The point of this vid is to demonstrate that changing mouthpieces with different sizes and even different instruments (the trombone is a cylindrical bore, while the cornet is a conical bore, not to mention the difference in the bore size). The mouthpiece I play on the trombone is Wedge 7C, which has a double curved rim, while the GR#66 has a standart rim.
So, if you have done your homework, switching mouthpieces and instruments won't be that much of a problem.
Trumpeters, bear with me while I slide the bone....cornet is coming at second chorus and it is rather noodling, than playing the head.
