Légère: a modern reed born from engineering
Since 1998, Légère has been developing reeds based on scientific work around composite materials. After the success of reeds for clarinets and saxophones, the brand took on the challenge of the double reed for bassoon, with a clear goal: to offer a coherent, stable, and enduring reed without sacrificing the musical character expected by bassoonists.
For which bassoonist and repertoire?
This Légère reed is aimed at musicians seeking reliable and consistent playing, particularly in classical repertoire, chamber music, and orchestra. The medium hard strength will generally suit those who want good support, a solid foundation, and controlled response, while maintaining comfort in emission.
Sound and design
Made from a synthetic polymer designed for acoustics, this bassoon reed aims for a round, homogeneous sound and an immediate attack. Its design emphasizes strength consistency from one reed to another, to stabilize intonation, projection, and resistance feel, while limiting variations related to humidity and wear.
Recommended compatible accessories
To preserve response and longevity, the use of a ventilated bassoon reed case (sized for double reeds) is recommended, as well as storage that avoids any pressure on the blades.
