The BRAHMA soprano is the evolution of the traditional small chamber soprano mouthpiece, such as the Selmer, Vandoren, Otto Link, etc. mouthpieces. BRAHMA uses the fundamental features of these mouthpieces, such as a small chamber & flat side-walls, but updated with Theo’s new design technologies, which is why you will notice the interior looks quite different.
Twisted-Walls™: Flat-sidewall that ‘twists’ into the chamber. Wave-Baffle™: The baffle is shaped in the form of a sine-wave, adding fullness and sparkle to the sound. Theo’s proprietary “bullet” chamber: A unique ‘elongated-oval’ shape is used to transition from baffle to chamber. Shark-Gill-Baffle™: The arced lines you see on the baffle. Small-Stadium-Chamber™: Shape like a Football Stadium, the Small-Stadium-Chamber™ gives tremendous projection. Elliptical Window: Efficiently focuses the airstream into the mouthpiece.
These features allow the BRAHMA to do-it-all. From ballads to rock & roll, this is the most versatile mouthpiece we make. It has a very large core sound and great projection, while still maintaining a traditional ‘dark’ sound.
Manufactured by Theo Wanne™ using the highest technology in the market for both consistency and accurate reproduction of the new design. The BRAHMA is available in premium hard rubber. We only use pure hard rubber with no accelerants, additives or carbon black. It is pure, like the vintage hard rubber from the 1930’s through 50s.
