      I play mouthpieces by Johannes Gleichweit out of conviction, and I am grateful for Hannes\u2019 enthusiasm and his tireless spirit of research! Starting from the basic curve of the \u201cHi7\u201d by my teacher Hans Hindler, through small modifications we were able to develop the \u201cSchorn series\u201d, which suits me and my playing in a holistic way. The air is the connection between body and soul \u2013 when we stop breathing, we die. The mouthpieces by Johannes Gleichweit help me (together with the wooden reeds I play from the company Alexander Pilgerstorfer and my clarinet set by Otmar Hammerschmidt, Wattens\/Tirol) to produce tones that are \u201cbedded on air\u201d \u2013 and thus to let the most natural, living music come into being!<\/p>\n
