Dear Tubenet,

I am very pleased to announce that I have developed a Helleberg mouthpiece specifically for Andrew Hitz of the Boston Brass. This mouthpiece is designed for the dynamic player with dynamic needs. The Parker- Hitz Helleberg will be on exhibit at Army Tuba Conference on February 1- 2- if you are at the conference please visit with us in the exhibition hall. All Parker Mouthpieces are in 3 piece and are made of stainless steel.

For more information on Parker Mouthpieces please visit us online at http://www.parkermouthpieces.com" target="_blank" target="_blank and be sure to follow us on Instagram and Facebook as well.

Hope to see you at the Conference!

I bet he'll enjoy it.

Yes Andrew is enjoying the mouthpiece- he gave his final round of trials on this model a few weeks back while on tour in China with the Boston Brass. As a quintet player myself I designed the Parker- Hitz with the needs of an all around player in mind. This medium/ large tuba mouthpiece is a good choice for the player who needs to quickly shift from various dynamics, textures, styles, etc. We are working hard to update the website with more detailed information, pictures, specs, and additional models so please check back with us soon!

If you will be at the Army Conference please do stop by and give us a buzz!

Please feel free to PM me off the board with any additional questions.
