Rico Royal: A Versatile Reference Within the Range
The Rico Royal reeds are designed to offer a very musical balance between ease of play and timbre definition. Known for their consistency, they rely on advanced manufacturing processes to provide a more regular feel from one reed to another, while maintaining the "Rico" DNA: a direct response and a clear sound.
For Which Musician and Styles?
Designed for advanced players, these reeds are particularly suited to contexts where a clear sound and precise articulation are sought. They fit naturally in both jazz and classical settings and can be suitable for various types of clarinets and saxophones (depending on the reed model chosen within the Rico Royal family).
Sound and Design
In strength 1.5, the Rico Royal prioritize easy response and quick vibration, useful for working on flexibility, dynamics, and attack. Their French cut combined with a more robust vamp promotes stable response, better control in legato passages, and appreciable clarity in projection, with balanced behavior across the entire range.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To preserve the flatness and lifespan of your reeds, a reed case (universal size) is a simple and useful daily accessory.
