Selmer SUPER SESSION - F

Henri SELMER Paris: A Historic Reference in Saxophone Mouthpieces

Since 1885, Henri SELMER Paris has established itself as a key manufacturer of saxophones and accessories, with a history closely linked to the production of reeds and mouthpieces. The brand has evolved its methods by combining demanding artisanal craftsmanship with modern digital machining in its workshops in Mantes-la-Ville, achieving remarkable consistency and manufacturing precision. Within the SELMER range, the Super Session embodies an aesthetic firmly focused on performance and expressiveness, with a clear goal: to offer an inspiring mouthpiece capable of following the musician's intentions without hardening the timbre.

For Which Soprano Saxophonist? Styles and Profiles

The SELmer Super Session soprano saxophone mouthpiece is primarily aimed at intermediate to professional saxophonists seeking a responsive, expressive mouthpiece capable of "holding" dynamics without becoming harsh. It is especially suited for jazz (from straight playing to more contemporary phrasing), but also fits pop music, amplified ensembles, or contexts where projection and presence are priorities. If you enjoy working on tone color, shading, and shaping sound with air, this model offers a solid and coherent foundation.

Sound and Design

With its round chamber, this Super Session aims for a balance between timbre density and ease of vibration. The F tip opening (1.45 mm) provides latitude for lively and dynamic playing, while the 24 mm facing length contributes to consistent response and comfortable emission. The desired result is a rich, non-aggressive sound that remains stable across dynamic levels: you can increase intensity without losing control, while maintaining a beautiful palette of nuances and effective projection.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

The mouthpiece is delivered with a mouthpiece patch. Ligature and mouthpiece cap not included : you can complete your setup with a ligature and mouthpiece cap suited for the soprano saxophone and the mouthpiece shape, to optimize reed stability and protection during transport.
