Nikolaus Holler

I find that my Syos mouthpiece is the most comfortable one to play on out of everything I have tried out so far. For every mouthpiece there is a compromise to be made; but my Syos one allows me to create a sound that is rich in overtones and all kinds of colors, and is open to multiphonic possibilities while keeping an easy-going and smooth control of intonation throughout the whole register. No matter if it is for a hip-hop piece, a contemporary orchestra or a swingin' show; it is ready for every style, which is very important to me.
