SELME R: a return to the origins of a great reed-making tradition
Henri SELMER Paris reconnects with the historic activity of the house: reed manufacturing, the founder's first specialty since 1885. Generations of musicians have known the iconic series such as "Soloist" and "Omega," appreciated for their reliability. Continuing the brand's dynamism with its clarinets, saxophones, and mouthpieces, this new reed range aims to offer controlled manufacturing, modern calibration, and an immediately recognizable sound identity.
For which soprano saxophonist?
These Henri SELMER Paris reeds are intended for soprano saxophonists from intermediate to professional level who seek a more consistent feel from reed to reed and carefully selected cane. Their balance favors comfortable playing in classical (intonation and homogeneity) as well as in jazz or pop (projection and color), with a response designed to remain reliable despite environmental changes (venue, outdoors, heating, humidity).
Sound and design
Made from cane, these reeds focus on stable response and rich vibration. The choice of canes from a preserved natural environment, far from pesticides, aims for a consistent raw material with good durability over time. The profile developed with SELMER's acoustic expertise highlights a round, warm, and dense sound while maintaining smooth emission and good register homogeneity-qualities particularly sought after in the soprano saxophone where precision and timbre control are essential.
Recommended compatible accessories
Each reed is delivered in a reed case designed for easy handling and enhanced protection, practical to avoid chips during placement and storage. The individual packaging in kraft paper flowpack helps maintain constant humidity until opening.
