It is some times a necessity to do somthings completly diferrent.
After playing saxophone for a couple of years I startded to wonder if I could
make one myself, so strated of making a small study about the magical art of saxophone mouthpieces
First I cut a couple out of hard wood and with no bad result at all, and then went on to
cast a couple in bronz and finally in Silver, I've made them for the whole Saxophone family
from a smal soprano the alto these pictures are for the Tenor and made them even for the bariton
and they all have a great sound and are easy to play, her are the result.




Left one with a small chamber , and right with a big one





Left a pollished baffle and the right one is rough





And you need to hold the reed in place.

Schoonhoven Silver Award 2009


In May 2008 I was invited to participate in the Schoonhoven Silver Award 2009
From an international field of 153 applications, I was selected to make a work for this Award.
The Schoonhoven Silver Award 2009 was shown in Pinakothek der Moderne in Munchen Germany.
The entire collection was beautifully situated on the "Rotunde" under a very large window
that indirectly illuminates the works, very impressive.
The Bayerisches Fernsehen, Rundschau has made a nice presentation film of it.
Via Albert Six I received some nice photos, which were supplied by,
Die Neue Sammlung - The International Design Museum Munich (A. Laurenzo)

where together with Toby Tredgett (indeed, Willem's brother),
who provided the better snacks and drinks, a beautiful
and successful presentation was created in Jan's studio.
