Who the BMPHVB-R Bb Clarinet Mouthpiece Is For
The Backun BMPHVB-R is a Bb clarinet mouthpiece designed to provide a centered, efficient setup for clarity of articulation, stable pitch, and confident altissimo. Its close/short facing emphasizes evenness and a focused sound that “sings” without requiring excess effort, which can be especially helpful for players refining response and consistency across registers.
This is Richard Hawkins’s recommended choice for young artists and advancing clarinetists stepping up to a more complex mouthpiece while still wanting a controllable, efficient feel. It also suits professionals who prefer a close facing and want a mouthpiece specifically optimized to work reliably with both cane and synthetic reeds.
