Theo Wanne DURGA 5 saxophone hard rubber mouthpiece
The DURGA 5 alto has a big, rich and contemporary sound, but due to its unique chamber it also plays amazing ballads.
The DURGA 5 does everything the DURGA 4 does, but with more core and body to the sound. Since the DURGA Alto has become a true classic in the saxophone world, we didn’t want to change the base sound signature. But we did want to update it with some of Theo’s new technology. Hence, it now has a Medium-Stadium-Chamber™, and a new technology in creation of the baffle. By continued research & development, Theo has optimized the baffle and chamber to accept airflow even better. You will get a much fuller, yet freer blowing, mouthpiece. Soooooo much fun to play!
The DURGA has a step-baffle for power, but also deeply rounded inner side walls leading into our Medium-Stadium-Chamber™, giving it the full sound inherent in a True Large Chamber AND extra projection. This is why it can scream and be mellow depending on your mood.
Theo Wanne is the foremost expert on vintage and new mouthpiece design and is one of the few living Mouthpiece Refacing Masters.
Theo’s makes his mouthpieces EXACTLY to his design specifications, not just ‘close’. This is why Theo has invested so heavily in manufacturing technology. His office is in the Pacific Northwest of the USA, where Boeing and the other leading Aerospace manufacturing companies work too.
Theo is a master with mouthpiece handwork. However, he uses the worlds most advanced machining technologies to finish the most important areas like the baffle. Theo’s mouthpiece designs are complex, making his mouthpieces are some of the most difficult to make parts on the planet, in any industry. The reason is that tooling must sculpt the complex interior geometries in very hard to reach places such as the chamber and inner sidewalls.
Theo Wanne's mouthpieces manufacture the exact designs Theo intends, to make history’s best quality saxophone mouthpieces.
Sax players like Jan Garbarek, Leo P, Mindi Abair, Gerald Albright, Carlos Miyares, Terry Harrington are a few names to listen how Theo Wanne mouthpieces sound.
