15 seconds apiece (or so) with 21 Great alto saxophone mouthpieces

This is something I've wanted to do for awhile. While this is not meant to be a detailed analysis of how each of these mouthpieces sound, but more of a snapshot of a particular characteristic when I play them. I tried to play to the strengths of each mouthpiece in this video..but 15 seconds comes around pretty fast!

I played in 3 different styles and used mouthpieces that I feel fit a certain style (when I play them). Truthfully I play whatever style is called for with the setup I'm playing at that time in my life. I've played all types of gigs on many of these mouthpieces but for this video I put them into stylistic categories...

I used my Eastman 52nd ST. Alto and the Silverstein Ligature (except for the Metal ARB and Beecher) and the same Vandoren V16 (3) reed throughout.
