Alessandro Fossi Signature Tuba Mouthpieces – Orchestral Mastery & Italian Elegance
A pinnacle of craftsmanship born from close collaboration with one of the world's most respected orchestral tubists. Alessandro Fossi, Principal Tuba of the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome, renowned soloist, educator, and international artist, brings unparalleled musical insight to these pieces.
His testimonial speaks volumes about the result:
"The new mouthpieces I have received from Giddings are exceptional; the quality of construction is superior to that of any other brass mouthpiece I have ever tried. The machining of the steel is so smooth and precise that I could play for hours without irritation. I was impressed by the quality of the sound: compact and deep, rich in harmonics, with great projection. Everything seems easier to play."
— Alessandro Fossi
These mouthpieces are not just tools — they are instruments of expression, engineered for the demands of the highest-level orchestral repertoire while offering unmatched comfort, projection, and tonal beauty.
Contra Bass Tuba Mouthpiece – Depth, Girth & Commanding Presence
Inner Rim Diameter: 1.290" (32.75 mm) | Throat: .335" (8.5 mm) | Deep Funnel-Shaped Cup | Semi-Round Rim with Sharp Inner Bite
The Contra Bass version is designed to deliver the massive, authoritative sound required in the most demanding orchestral and symphonic settings. The deep funnel cup generates extraordinary depth and width of tone — a truly orchestral foundation with rich, resonant harmonics that fills the largest halls. The larger throat (.335") provides effortless airflow and a huge, enveloping sound that is unmatched in girth and power, while the sharp inner bite of the semi-round rim ensures razor-sharp articulation, crystal-clear attacks, and total control across the entire spectrum of the orchestral tubist's repertoire — from thunderous pedal tones to secure high registers. This mouthpiece excels on large contrabass tubas, giving players the projection, security, and musicality needed orchestral works. Comfort meets command — play for hours with confidence and beauty.
Bass Tuba Mouthpiece – Classic Purity, Shimmer & Orchestral LightInner
Rim Diameter: 1.268" (32.2 mm) | Throat: .305" (7.75 mm) | Medium-Deep Bowl-Shaped Cup | Sharp Inner Bite Rim
The Bass (F Tuba) mouthpiece is the perfect companion for standard orchestral F tubas — a classic, clean, pure, and luminous sound that brings shimmer and excitement to the literature. The medium-deep bowl cup produces a focused, singing tone with brilliant overtones and elegant clarity, ideal for lyrical passages, solo features, and the delicate blending required in chamber and orchestral settings. The slightly narrower throat (.305") and sharp inner bite ensure precise articulation, quick response, and the light, agile character that defines great F tuba playing — without sacrificing warmth or projection. This is the mouthpiece that makes everything feel easier, more musical, and more inspired — exactly as Alessandro describes.
