Henri SELMER Paris: a historic reference in wind instrument accessories
Founded at the end of the 19th century, Henri SELMER Paris has established itself as a key house in the world of wind instruments, initially through the manufacture of reeds and mouthpieces, then thanks to an increasingly demanding approach to accessories. Today, the brand relies on a balance between artisan craftsmanship and high-precision machining to offer consistent, stable ligatures adapted to various sound aesthetics. This ligature fits within this logic: a reliable accessory designed to meet the expectations of bass clarinetists seeking consistency and comfort.
Intended use and musician
This Henri SELMER Paris ligature is aimed at bass clarinetists of all levels, from progressing players to professionals, who want a secure tightening that is easy to reproduce from one session to another. It suits both classical contexts (intonation, stability, clean articulation) and jazz, contemporary music, or ensemble settings (projection, clear attack, control over dynamics). The double screw allows for quick retrieval of a comfortable setting, particularly useful in rehearsals, concerts, or studio sessions.
Sound and design
A ligature directly affects how the reed vibrates against the mouthpiece: the goal is to achieve a firm hold without restricting response. Thanks to its double tightening screws, this model promotes more balanced pressure, which can help improve sound stability and consistency across all registers of the bass clarinet. The silver finish adds an elegant and discreet touch while easily integrating with most setups (ebonite or other material mouthpieces).
Recommended compatible accessories
Delivered without mouthpiece cap : if you do not already have one, consider choosing a mouthpiece cap specifically adapted to your bass clarinet mouthpiece (compatibility depends on the exact mouthpiece model).
