Light and easy to play, the Prologue clarinet offers immediate comfort.
With ergonomic silver plated keywork specially designed for clarinettists of all levels that enables a natural and rapid adaptation to the instrument.
Ease of response and emission is ensured through its specifically designed bore, as well as enormous flexibility across all registers of the instrument and homogeneity of sound from top to bottom.
Our acoustic research has allowed for an optimisation of the instrument’s intonation, which puts the Prologue in a remarkable position in its category. The Prologue clarinet is available in Bb.
The instrument is also available with an optional Eb lever.
Thanks to its innovative bore design, this clarinet has unique acoustic qualities that provide ease of emission, exceptional homogeneity and above all an instrument that is easy to play.
The sound of the Présence clarinet is a mix of harmonic richness, and timbre; essential characteristics to the instrument. Also, the research done on the position and size of the tone holes has given this clarinet unrivalled intonation.
Specially designed keys, as well as new key orientations and positions, provide unmatched mechanical precision and response combined with player comfort.
The grenadilla wood is selected, delicately worked, naturally treated, lacquered and waterproofed for a protection and finish at the top of its class.
Known for their great flexibility and stability, the clarinets Privilège are being refined in aesthetics, ergonomics and accuracy.
The keys redesigned, the new key orientation and improvement of the mechanical response make it easier the clarinettist's adaptation to the Privilege.
The Privilège clarinets are exceptionally stable in pitch, perfectly adaptable to all acoustics (opera, symphony, brass band, chamber, session) and easily blend with other instruments. The perfectly balanced medium register (E, F, F, F#, G) wins in brightness and timbre making the Privilège clarinet an extremely consistent instrument over the whole range. In addition, most of the notes do not require corrective fingerings to be accurate, nor even a correction key.
Raw ebony wood is selected, worked delicately, naturally treated, lacquered and waterproof for protection and a top-of-the-range finish, completed by fine engravings on keys and rings.
A sophisticated bore, as well as the material, a specially selected and worked grenadilla wood, have made possible the genesis of a unique sonority; noble and living matter, the wood itself gives the "Recital" this warm, rich and round tone, with an exceptional presence (diameter of the joints is bigger than a traditional model, by two millimetres).
A significant reserve of power and a very condensed voice favour a generous playing. A really expressive instrument for those who are looking for "a sound". A Bb and A set with an original conception for a rare quality acoustic result.
Signature is a unique and unrivalled concept.
Its tone is a fair compromise between roundness and presence as a subtle mix of smoothness and energy.
A wide dynamic range facilitates pianissimo and unsaturated fortissimo, with a perfectly homogeneous tone over the various registers.
A centred and easy emission provides a high level control. The tuning is perfectly balanced thanks to its higher toneholes.
Ease of response, tone rich in harmonics, flexibility, reliability... Get inspired by Muse clarinets !
Designed to become the natural extension of your breath, the Bb and A Muse clarinets have been designed for musicians seeking instruments offering a very precise and direct response. They offer a great ease of playing, an immediate vibration, a clear, colorful, warm tone. Their comfort and the design of the keywork allow for a very quick adaptation to the instrument.
The Muse clarinet's intonation has also been optimised, well calibrated with precise intervals. It has a great homogeneity in all registers and switching from note to note.
The EVOLUTION★ system has been integrated to the Muse clarinet. This innovation based on a new generation resin interior lining, providing better stability and longevity to the instrument, while preserving the acoustic qualities of the traditional wooden clarinet.
The Privilege bass clarinet combines strikingly easy blowing and a round, warm sound that has gained in homogeneity and power. Its versatility also enables real work on the sound imprint. Tuning is very much improved and balanced over all registers.
The overall ergonomics have evolved: easier keywork feels better under the fingers and allows a more natural and comfortable playing position. Its great responsiveness provides swiftness close to the B-flat and opens up a feeling of freedom. Numerous technical improvements equally enhance the functioning of the instrument.
