[Dixielandjazz] Baritone as Trombone?

[Steven Owen]

I haven't heard of a Marching Trombone, thats a new one on me, I play 
Baritone, right now I'm playing Marching Baritone (which believe me be 
glad you don't /have/ to play it because Marching Band practice 
certainly requires some Icy-Hot he he) but I'm not sure if you have 
tried using a larger mouthpiece such as a Tuba Mouthpiece or a Euphonium 
Mouthpiece, one day at practice I got curious and used a Euphonium 
mouthpiece and it seem to make it easier to play lower, but I have 
gotten where I can play down to to a somewhat low range of a Tuba with 
the Marching Baritone, but it took some time so, of course it was partly 
because I have to play that low. Just a suggestion. :D

PS. Anyone know a good website, has one, or knows somebody that is 
selling a good Marching Baritone let me know. because I'm looking for a 
nice one to march with, preferably Nickel plate but, a gold finish is 
OK. The one I'm playing is ding and aged so I'm looking to get a nice 
one I can own.
