Jody Jazz and the HR* Series: Artisan Excellence Serving the Musician
Created by Jody Espina, the Jody Jazz brand was built around a simple idea: to offer high-end mouthpieces capable of meeting the expectations of both professionals and the most demanding students. The HR* series fully embodies this philosophy by combining meticulous design, modern manufacturing processes, and a hand-finished quality. The result: a mouthpiece designed to provide smooth playing, immediate response, and a flattering sound without effort.
For Which Musician and Styles?
The Jody Jazz HR* for B-flat clarinet is aimed at intermediate to advanced clarinetists seeking a mouthpiece that is both comfortable and expressive, while maintaining a round and controlled tonal foundation. Tip openings from 1 to 5 do not target a typical "jazz" approach: this is a versatile mouthpiece, suitable for classical, pop, wind orchestra, or modern contexts where a bit more presence is appreciated without sacrificing tone quality.
Sound and Design
Made of ebonite, the HR* emphasizes a warm timbre and natural response. Its main asset is the free blowing characteristic: the air column flows with less resistance, facilitating articulation, sound sustain, and dynamic changes. This feeling of freedom also enhances flexibility in dynamics, while maintaining solid intonation across all registers. The mouthpiece retains slightly enhanced projection, useful for navigating forte passages without hardening the sound, while remaining comfortable in pianissimo.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
This mouthpiece is delivered without ligature or mouthpiece cap. To complete your setup, choose a ligature for B-flat clarinet mouthpiece (Boehm system) and a mouthpiece cap suited to the mouthpiece size, to protect the table and tip during transport.
