The contrast between the classical and the jazz sound is simple perfect; represent the right difference of both sound style.

Dr. Walsh is such a pro. Amazing instructor and classical/ jazz musician.

[@jdbarrera]

Great to see Dr. Walsh! I learned a ton from him about how to get a good jazz tone in masterclasses and as an example of how to be a caring teacher and stand-up guy.

[@ramyshaalan53]

Your classical tone... its... perfect!

[@romanholder6556]

He's a great, versatile player and great guy! Check out his colleague, Otis Murphy, cream of the crop classical player. He also teaches at IU JSoM.

"That will be $78.50, plus tax, for the lesson. Please see the receptionist on your way out. NEXT!"

I feel like categorizing mouthpieces into category’s isn’t very useful, if you like you’re jazz sound to be dark and edgy using a classical piece makes sense. Whatever works for the sound you’re going for, it’s nice to see you found it!

[@sebastiansprotte2551]

You have jazz mouthpieces which sound dark and edgy. Classical mouthpieces aren't very useful for jazz, they're just too clean.

[@saxefoner]

Very good!

I took a lesson with him last summer and it looks like he's playing the same horn. It's a Yamaha 62 from the 70's I believe
