[quote=Anonymous]Recorders and other instruments in the school band were shared when I was at school in the 1970's. They were never cleaned. I played recorder and clarinet and the mouthpieces were always smelly but I just got used to it. It never caused me any health problems using mouthpieces that had been in others kids mouths and I never even wiped them let alone washed them before I played them. People worry too much thesedays in my opinion, but I understand that it isn't nice playing smelly instruments and I admit that it made me feel sick a couple of times even though I would just put on a brave face infront of other boys in ny class. and put the mouthpiece in my mouth. I remember my best friend passing me his recorder to play once and the mouthpiece stank but I just put it in my mouth and got on with practicing so as not to offend him. Ah those were the days! Everyone worries too much about germs etc thesedays![/quote]
