Jože Kotar

"It is a robust instrument, with a rich sound allowing a lot of explorations."

Joris Rühl

"In my Signature clarinets, I find a sound full of harmonics, a wonderful colour that I can customize and an extraordinary dynamic range that keeps the sound centered even when I play fff!"

Justo Sanz

"The Signature provides both power and bel canto lyricism allowing me to perform technical passages with ease and to deploy the full range of nuances necessary for orchestral playing. With this instrument I have found my true voice."

Stephen Williamson

"I love my Selmer Signature clarinets because they allow me to create a sound with a deep, solid core that emanates warmth. I would recommend this instrument to anyone who wants a unique, rich sound that has both power and flexibility."
