SEL MER Paris: a return to the brand's origins
Henri SELMER Paris reconnects with its history by relaunching reed manufacturing, Henri Selmer's very first activity back in 1885. This new range continues the acoustic expertise of the manufacture, already recognized for its saxophones, clarinets, and mouthpieces, with a demand for consistency and reliability expected by musicians.
For which saxophonist?
These reeds for tenor saxophone are suitable for saxophonists from beginner to advanced level seeking a stable and homogeneous reed for daily use, both in conservatories and on stage. Their balance makes them comfortable in jazz, pop, brass band, and more classical repertoire, depending on the mouthpiece and the player's embouchure.
Sound and design
The wild cane, selected for its fiber content, promotes good longevity and resistance to temperature and humidity variations. The profile aims for smooth response, controlled projection, and warm tone, with a consistent feel from one reed to another. Individual packaging in kraft paper helps preserve humidity, and the reed case is designed to minimize the risk of breakage during handling.
