An Emblematic Ligature of BG France Expertise
Recognized for the consistency of its accessories and its manufacturing standards, BG France is one of the leading brands in the world of ligatures and accessories for wind instruments. The Tradition series fits within this approach: a design intended to optimize contact with the reed while maintaining easy placement and stability suited to demanding contexts (orchestra, soloist, large hall).
For Which Clarinetist and in What Contexts?
This ligature is aimed at intermediate to professional clarinetists seeking immediate response and a brighter sound, especially in projected playing situations. Its bright and colorful character is particularly suitable for classical repertoire and soloist performances, but it is equally relevant in orchestral settings when one wants to gain presence without forcing.
Sound and Design
The BG Tradition ligature, made of gold-plated metal, is designed to provide direct projection and a generous harmonic spectrum. Its contact concept with grooves and felt aims to stabilize the reed while promoting efficient vibration, resulting in homogeneous sound across all registers (low, chalumeau, high). The outcome: clearer articulation, a more defined timbre, and a satisfying sense of control in large acoustics.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
This ligature comes with a BG Ndeg5 mouthpiece cap, providing suitable protection. To complete your maintenance routine, a Bb clarinet swab and Bb clarinet reeds of your usual strength remain daily essentials (to be chosen according to your mouthpiece and playing style).
