Berg originally made his name as a professional musician and whilst not working, he could be found making
reeds in Archer Street London. In 1945, he designed and manufactured a range of ebonite mouthpieces for clarinet and saxophone
which later evolved into a range made out of stainless steel for an increased lifespan. Although Berg died in 1972, his name
lives on. Today, we can offer a wide variety of mouthpieces in various different materials and styles. Today, the name Berg
Larsen in synonymous with hand crafted mouthpieces for saxophones. Skilled craftsmen use ten machining processes to create
each Berg Larsen mouthpiece. Each one is individually hand finished and inspected to ensure the Berg Larsen reputation for
quality is maintained. As well as using a variety of materials in the construction of our mouthpieces, they have a comprehensive
range of tip openings, to be sure that there is a mouthpiece for EVERYONE. Berg Larsen Saxophone Mouthpieces are used by some

qualities which give a more resonant tone. Mouthpieces are SMS (European Facing) unless otherwise specified.
