So I told the "Mouthpiece Story" to a bunch of beginning band students. It is actually a true story but I tell it to encourage students to clean their mouthpieces. I do not plan to tell it here....it could be the last time that anyone reads this blog. Just let it suffice to say mouthpiece hygiene is important.
