Logic would support you conclusions on this, but you on essential element to the equation. This is BACH we are talking about. :-)

This brings up a question for me.  Glenn's comments lead me to think that a 
5C is a larger piece than a 3C and therefore produces a darker sound.

>>mouthpiece.  Several points were made that it was ridiculous to play any 
>>LEAD on a 5C or bigger.  My points were that it wasn't ridiculous.

Others on the list have mentioned that a 3C was a good lead piece.

This is a contradiction of my belief that the smaller the number, the larger 
the mouthpiece inside cup diameter.  I thought that the numbering system was 
that a 1, 1-1/4, 1-1/2, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10-1/2 were decreasing in inside cup 
diameter size and that the alpha characters referred to the cup depth.  A C 
cup being deeper than an E cup for example.  From this; I conclude that a 5C 
should be smaller than a 3C.  Do I have a correct idea of what's going on 
here?  I need education.
