A Reed Designed Around a Cane with a Unique Character
The WILD stands out due to the origin of its material: wild canes, whose color may vary slightly. This choice of tube, combined with a refined geometry, aims for a balance between responsiveness, sound presence, and durability.
For Which Musicians and Styles
This reed is particularly suitable for musicians seeking a modern sound, more bright and punchy, especially for contemporary music. Its richness in harmonics also makes it relevant for jazz and orchestral settings, when a clear projection and precise articulation are desired.
Sound and Design
Its thicker tip promotes stability and wear resistance, while the thinner bevel helps the reed "speak" quickly, with a more assertive emission. The result: a luminous tone, a more pronounced attack, and a strong presence in the mix, while maintaining a harmonically rich spectrum.
