A Return to SELMER Origins, Continuing the Brand's Legacy
Henri SELMER Paris reconnects with its very first activity (since 1885) by relaunching a range of reeds for clarinet and saxophone. This approach aligns with the brand's recent dynamism in its instruments and mouthpieces, and with the historical pursuit of reliability that has made SELMER reeds renowned among generations of musicians.
For Which Alto Saxophonists and Styles
With their strength 3.25, these reeds are generally aimed at intermediate to advanced saxophonists seeking a good balance between resistance, control, and stability. They are suitable for both classical and jazz as well as contemporary music styles, when aiming for a centered and homogeneous sound.
Sound and Design
The reed profile targets regular vibration (controlled table/cut), with balanced projection and good register homogeneity. The fiber-rich cane provides a sensation of solidity and increased longevity. Individual packaging in kraft paper helps preserve the freshness of the cane and stable humidity.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To extend the lifespan of your reeds: a ventilated reed case and a swab suitable for alto saxophone (to limit residual moisture in the mouthpiece and neck).
