Vandoren Paris
The Vandoren company was founded in 1905. It quickly became the leader in reeds, mouthpieces and accessories for clarinets and saxophones. Vandoren is exporting today 90% of its production in more than 100 countries, thanks to a know-how and an involvement of every instant.
The Vandoren company is a family business, founded by Eugène Van Doren, soloist at the Concerts Colonne orchestra. Continued by his son, clarinetist Robert Van Doren then by Bernard Van Doren, its actual President. Robert, Bernard’s son, joined the company in 2014.
B46
The mouthpiece best suited to musicians playing both clarinet and saxophone.

From a manufacturer with such a large selection of variable models in their range, there are so many possibilities of cut and design for each model of mouthpiece.
