Legere’s Deliciously Dark Symphonic Reed
Unique profile optimizes stability, response, and resistance
To meet the specific needs of orchestral performers, the French cut reed features a unique profile with an even distribution of material and a thin tip that provides excellent stability, quick response, and the perfect amount of resistance, along with an unrestricted range of expression. Broadening the material across the vamp gives you slightly more reed to push against and dampens some of the outer flex of the rails while the thin tip maintains responsiveness.
Remarkably cane-like sound and feel
Developed to provide demanding orchestral reed players with a premium symphonic reed that circumvents the problems associated with cane reeds, Legere’s French Cut design incorporates years of artist feedback and continual refinement. The result is a synthetic reed with outstanding longevity, consistency, and sonic integrity. You’ll be impressed with the French Cut’s remarkably cane-like sound and playing feel. To accommodate a wide variety of player preferences, Legere’s French Cut reeds are available in quarter strengths for alto and tenor saxophone as well as Bb clarinet.
Legere Reeds: a trusted standard in synthetic reeds
Scientist Dr. Guy Legere co-founded Legere Reeds in a quest to formulate a synthetic reed that played as well as moist cane while avoiding the disadvantages of natural cane reeds. Since hitting the scene in 1998, Legere Reeds has made waves throughout the industry thanks to its commitment to producing high-performing reeds with non-traditional materials. Today, the company produces innovative synthetic reeds for single- and double-reed instruments that prominent musicians across all genres endorse.
