Vandoren V16: The Legacy of 56 rue Lepic Serving the Sound
Worldwide renowned for the precision in manufacturing its mouthpieces and reeds, the house of Vandoren (56 rue Lepic) designed the V16 series as a direct response to the demands of jazz saxophonists: presence, projection, and great interpretative freedom. Available across the entire saxophone family, the ebonite V16 has established itself as a reliable choice for building a personal and immediately recognizable sound.
For Which Musician and Styles?
This mouthpiece is aimed at intermediate to professional saxophonists seeking a truly jazz-voiced mouthpiece for baritone saxophone: big band, section playing, lead, funk, swing, Latin, and brass-driven pop styles. The V16 series comes with various tip openings and chamber types to adapt the projection and ease of response to the musician's role (section playing or solo parts).
Sound and Design
Made of ebonite, the V16 targets a dense and lively timbre, with good articulation and smooth response. The 2.75 mm tip opening of the B75, combined with a medium-long facing, promotes a homogeneous response and clear articulation, while leaving space to shape the sound (sharper attack, dynamics, vibrato). As with any mouthpiece, the final signature will depend on the reed and ligature: tip, chamber, bore, and opening work together to define color and projection.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To stay true to the series' spirit, this mouthpiece pairs perfectly with Vandoren JAVA, V16, and ZZ reeds (choose according to your preferred resistance and desired brightness/articulation).
