Denis Wick Heavytop Silver Plated Cornet Mouthpiece - DW6881
Denis Wick Heavytop Silver Plated Cornet Mouthpiece - DW6881
SKU:MDWC6881 1B
Denis Wick HeavyTop mouthpieces use a completely different principle in not feeding back to the player the vibration of the instruments, transmitting all the energy through to the bell. The Denis Wick HeavyTop cornet Mouthpiece gives a much more powerful sound when needed, more security in the high register and more control and focus in all registers.
This design is intended primarily for strong players, giving fantastic projection and a dark, full, rich sonority. The huge mass of the HeavyTop mouthpiece gives it enormous carrying power.
Denis Wick has revolutionised the world of cornet playing by bringing about a real difference between cornet and trumpet sounds. Carefully designed cups, throats and bores have given today's players opportunities that were simply not available to earlier generations. The richness, sweetness and flexibility of modern cornet playing, so much a characteristic of the best brass bands, are attributable to the careful research Denis Wick has done in cornet mouthpiece design. His concept is that the cornet is not an emasculated trumpet but should have a life and character of its own.
There are special models in the HeavyTop series for brass players who occasionally play cornet and seek a mouthpiece that makes the transition easy while still achieving a focused and centered characteristic cornet sound.
