Henri SELMER Paris: A Historic Signature Serving Accessories
Since 1885, Henri SELMER Paris has established itself as a reference house, initially with the manufacturing of reeds and mouthpieces, before becoming an essential name in wind instruments and accessories. The brand now combines artisan know-how and digital machining in its workshops in Mantes-la-Ville to ensure high manufacturing consistency. This ligature fits into this logic: offering reliable, coherent accessories adapted to different playing aesthetics to meet the needs of clarinetists.
For What Use and Which Musician?
This ligature is aimed at beginner, intermediate, or advanced clarinetists seeking easy-to-adjust tightening and consistent reed hold on the mouthpiece. It is suitable for both ensemble playing (wind orchestra, clarinet ensembles) and classical as well as contemporary repertoires, where stability of sound production and articulation precision are particularly appreciated.
Sound and Design
A ligature directly influences how the reed vibrates against the mouthpiece table: with its double tightening screws, this model allows balanced support and secure positioning, promoting a more consistent response and a feeling of control in attacks. The silver finish provides a sober and high-end aesthetic, consistent with the brand's "workshop" image, while easily integrating with various setups (mouthpiece, barrel, and accessories).
Recommended Compatible Accessories
This model is delivered without a mouthpiece cap. To guarantee perfect compatibility (shape and dimensions vary depending on mouthpieces and alto clarinets), it is recommended to choose a mouthpiece cap specifically adapted to your alto clarinet mouthpiece.
