You really shouldn`t ask begginers. Bachs are pretty good, or Schilke.

There is no best mouthpiece. There is a mouthpiece that is best for a certain player. And if you took the general consensus, the best mouthpieces would not be Bach`s, but I digress. Play the biggest mouthpiece you can. This will give you the best sound. There is always going to be a trade-off between sound and range, until you have built up enough muscles that you can play any note you need to. I would play a 12C until you can play higher than the highest notes you need to, and move to a 6.5 AL or the equivilant as soon as possible. Just make sure to fill the mouthpiece with enough air when you start playing a bigger one.
