  • Yes that is normal for all brass but as a tip make sure your instrument is warm because spit becomes more collected on the mouthpeice when it is. Also you dont need to wipe the mouthpeice while your playing I dont think on the baritone (I play trumpet)if its clean.
  • Let it drip down...it "sounds" better that way.
  • Are you spacing your teeth correctly? if you are clenching your teeth this could be causing some of your problem. Perhaps your mouthpiece is just tasty;)
  • your teeth have nothing to do with it i play baritone too it might be the shape of your mouthpiece is not fit for you or if you dont empty all your slides it will cause a water backup or if you are tilting the insterment up while you play the spit comes back to your mouth from the slides
