Classical players
:  Think of this cup as an orchestral performance enhancement drug (...that’s perfectly legal.)
We’ve redesigned our XL cup to be particularly useful for orchestral players; especially the 1XL & 2XL.  It has the kind of fullness that appeals to folks looking for that extra dimension of sound beyond a 1¼ C or 1C.  It’s more closely related to a 1B in terms of its breath of sound, while offering a huge upgrade in the upper register.  If you’ve ever fallen in love with your sound on a B cup but decided against using it because it felt restrictive in the upper register, or endurance-wise, then it’s time to try again!
This mouthpiece lets you maintain a sweet sound with tremendous core, and without too much brilliance.  Once you finally open up and start playing above forte, then it begins to shine.  This can really help you to blend within your ensemble, and avoid getting “the hand” from the conductor.  It’s also great for helping you ace all the articulation qualities the repertoire demands with ease.  In fact it’s quite hard to produce a harsh or ugly articulation on this mouthpiece, which feels pretty magical.  Ideal for:
Orchestral playing with a warm concept of sound
Small halls & Chamber music
The repertoire of Haydn, Beethoven, Mozart, etc.
French repertoire
Opera
Rotary Trumpet
​
Jazz players
:  This mouthpiece instantly adds a very warm, thick, sophisticated sound to your ballad playing, or any other playing with a gentile approach related to Chet Baker, Blue Mitchell, etc.  Don’t worry about using a heavy or large-bore trumpet without seeing how much richer your sound becomes just by using this mouthpiece.
Classical players and Jazzers alike who enjoy deeper bowl cups will find this mouthpiece a no-questions upgrade.
Lotus mouthpieces are machined from solid Brass, Bronze & Nickel Silver. They're not simply plated in those materials - they are those materials.
Every mouthpiece comes Silver Plated. Lotus tests a variety of Brass, Bronze & Nickel Silver alloys before selecting their favorites. The differences are remarkable, and want to find the absolute best. With these material options, LOTUS offers you an unparalleled amount of control over every aspect of your playing experience.
Every cup comes in 4 different rim sizes: 1, 2, 3, 7 (Loosely related to Bach sizing)
