I am really a horn player who finally bought an alto horn for use at Tubafest (look out Tony, here I come!). The mouthpiece that came with it looks more like a trombone mouthpiece than the alto horn mouthpiece I played on last year (that one seemed to look more like an oversized trumpet mouthpiece). I notice that with this large mouthpiece I'm having a much harder time getting a good sound and upper register. Any ideas what exactly an alto horn mouthpiece should look like (sizewise, compare to other mouthpieces, etc.) and where I can buy a good (but cheap) one?

Thanks
