Bari is the top of the line brand for synthetic reeds. Synthetic reeds like these will usually last several times longer than traditional reeds. They can still be chipped or cracked, but they will not wear out like traditional cane. The reeds are formulated to sound as similar to cane reeds as possible, but there is a difference. Because of this, we do not recommend synthetic reeds for most concert band situations. We do however recommend these reeds for use in marching band or jazz band where the greater stability of the synthetic reed is a greater asset. Reeds can not be returned.
Reeds are typically available in strengths of 1 through 5 (some brands label their reeds as Soft, Medium Soft, ... through Hard). In general, the lower the number, the easier it is to play most notes. The down side, is that the lower number reeds just don't sound as nice, and make it harder to hit high notes.
As a general rule, we recommend reeds with a strength of 2 (Soft) for people just getting started, and strength 2 1/2 (Medium Soft) for people who have played for a year (less time if they take lessons). The harder reeds should only be used after using the next softer size of reed for six months to a year, or at the recommendation of a private instructor or band director.

As a composer of religious music and as the music director for a prince, Austrian composer Franz Joseph Haydn created much music with an extremely serious feel and with serious content. This piece written for solo piano was his escape from his otherwise rigid format. It is written for solo piano and is meant to be played humorously with a free and lively feel.

Spanish composer Joaquin Turina was the writer of many popular symphonies during the first part of the 20th century. He was heavily influenced by the nationalistic pride throughout his country during this volatile time period. That feeling carried over into these pieces written for solo piano. They are challenging, but powerful works!
