VENN: D'Addario's Innovation for Woodwinds
With VENN, D'Addario offers a hybrid approach: a layered structure of polymer fibers with varying stiffness, combined with resin and Provence cane elements. The goal is clear: to provide the consistency and longevity of synthetic reeds while preserving the musicality and playing comfort sought in a cane reed.
For Which Saxophonist and Styles
This alto saxophone reed is aimed at musicians seeking a reliable response from session to session, whether in rehearsal, concert, wind orchestra, or studio. It is particularly suited for players who already have good control of their embouchure and are looking for a strength 4 (G2) for a firmer support.
Sound and Design
The layering of polymer fibers provides controlled flexibility to facilitate attack and articulation, while the resin enhances long-term durability. The addition of Provence cane particles aims for a richer and more natural sound, with even projection and consistent playability, even as conditions change.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To protect your reed daily, a reed storage case (alto saxophone size) is a simple and useful choice.
