Rascher has written about this at least several times in different articles. I can give you more specifics about where you can find these after I get home tonight. I can give you one specific one right now, though. In the October, 1954 issue of The Instrumentalist, he has an article entitled "Thoughts About the Saxophone Mouthpiece".
Rascher mouthpiece question
I have often heard that Mr. Rascher said that he was opposed to the "new" smaller chambered mouthpieces being used for classical music. Now, I understand that he said this in lessons, master classes, etc, but I have also heard that he wrote an article about this or gave a speech. I've never been able to find any concrete info about this, so does anyone have any information about where/when this happened, or was it just a philosophy that he espoused?

A rovner lig fits Rascher mpc's just fine. That's what a lot of people (including myself) use. I really only know of a couple people that use an inverted metal lig anymore.
