For four years, the Henri SELMER Paris development team and orchestra clarinet players from different countries brought together for this project, have been combining their knowledge and experience to produce the Muse set of professional clarinets.
The Muse clarinets have a clear, colorful, warm tone. Musicians are also attracted by its ease of response, its accuracy and its great homogeneity (in the intervals and switching from note to note).
- New conical bores for both 64 and 65mm barrels
- New conical bores of the body
- G# C# precision optimized by a raised tone hole
- New geometry of the holes
- New bell bores
- Placement and correction tone hole of low F and E notes on the lower joint (available on the A and Bb clarinet)
The Muse clarinet offers an ergonomic comfort similar to the one on our Privilège and Présence models, tested by numerous clarinetists worldwide. The design of the keywork allows for a very quick adaptation to the instrument. In addition, the A clarinet* has an adjustable thumb spatula for the low F and E correction key (also available on the Bb clarinet).
The original laser engraving on the bottom body of the instrument is inspired by the values of generosity, listening and transmission of the musical practice. The feather symbolizes lightness and creative freedom.
To complete their aesthetics, the Muse clarinets have two flat black chrome-plated metal rings, as well as two silver-plated rings with a new design.
The Muse clarinet is supplied with the following accessories:
- Echo mouthpiece: Echo is a universal mouthpiece suitable for all clarinetists and the first Henri SELMER Paris clarinet mouthpiece to be entirely manufactured on a digitally controlled machine, giving it an unprecedented production stability.
- PRiSMe single or double case
- Silver-plated ligature and cap
- Maintenance kit (swab, cork grease, soft cloth)
- Inspirational notebook: offered with every purchase of a Muse clarinet, this exclusive 160-page notebook was created by Henri SELMER Paris in collaboration with clarinetist Kinan Azmeh. This notebook will unleash the creativity of each artist through unique reflections and exercises.
