Steveįiled Under: Transcriptions Tagged With: 10mFan, David Mann, funky solo, Robusto, sax mouthpiece, tenor saxophone About Steve Thanks again to John Blevins who transcribed this one. Mark is a great guy to deal with and can steer you in the right direction. If you are interested in the Robusto mouthpiece you can contact Mark Sepinuck on his website at. The mouthpiece doesn’t sound thin or too edgy at all to my ears but perfect when Dave is playing it………. It’s the perfect blend of a full fat tenor sound mixed with some edge and brightness to give a modern sound to his tone. I think he sounds amazing on this mouthpiece. Any support is appreciated and will go towards keeping this site running, saxophone reeds, mouthpiece patches, coffee, and towards justifying the many hours I spend on providing free transcriptions to the saxophone community! Thanks, Steveĭavid Mann is using the 10mFan Robusto hard rubber tenor mouthpiece on this clip. *If you would like to support me here at, you can do so on the support page of my store by debit or credit card.

Here’s a short bio of Dave that I found on the internet:įresh out of the New England Conservatory of Music and new on the New York scene, David launched his solo career in the formative days of contemporary Jazz with the popular “Games” (1987) and “Insight” (1989) on the Island/Antilles label. He’s braver than I am to tackle the cadenza at the end of this solo……….Thanks for transcribing this John! John Blevins did all the hard work of transcribing this one. ![]() Here’s another great David Mann transcription that was sent to me from Mark Sepinuck.
