I would like to try a tenor metal 7 opening if possible?

 

[aldevis]

Back in the race!

 

[Absolute]

Everything is possible, let your requests and in a bit 'of days we choose openings intermediate in relation to your preferences, and I send the mouthpiece for passaround.

The help of Aldevis is fundamental, and I can never thank him enough ....

 

[Bernie]

Thanks Absolute

I have visited your site a few times and the English translation is fine

Yeah?

"New series of mouthpieces for alto sax with excellent performance both for the study that over..."

 

[ProfJames]

Perfect!

I criteri di scelta, quando si investe nella pubblicizazione di un prodotto artigianale, sono difficili da giudicare da chi appartiene ad un differente gruppo linguistico.

I'm not 100% sure what that means aldevis, but if they wanted a good translation into English they should have got an English speaker to do it.

 

[aldevis]

I know, but sometimes mouthpiece makers are busy making mouthpieces, and some things get easily lost in translation.
In the specific, "study" would translate as beginner, rather than "student" or "studying".
Not to mention the English term " studio" that is a so called "false friend".
I tend to be quite forgiving with people whose first language is not Italian or that haven't studied Latin.

 

[ProfJames]

It is also quaint. Keep doing what you are doing Absolute it is endearing....

They? It's just a bloke with a passion following his ideas. The blurb about any kit is mostly irrelevant anyhow. It interests you or it doesn't. It works for you or it doesn't.

 

[MMM]

Anyway , I would be very interested in the pass around : @aldevis please count me in!

I was just talking about the translation Colin. Somebody said it was a good translation. I'm a translator so I was interested. It isn't a good translation, the bit I quoted doesn't make any sense.

I don't think advertising or "blurb" as you call it can really be irrelevant, if it was businesses wouldn't continue to spend so much money on it. And I would guess that the blurb is particularly important in the case of a "boutique" item like a sax mouthpiece, it's an important part of what attracts the customer to the product.

 

[Colin the Bear]

A saxophone mouthpiece isn't a boutique item. It's a tool, to do a job. I'm not a translator but I got the gist of Aldevis' post.
