Professor of Clarinet at Vancouver College

"The Légère Reeds enabled me to search for the core of musical expression, without the traditional limitations associated with the reed search & prep and for that alone, they allow for multiple adaptations to a range of different performance environments. Their superior structural design is meant to allow for a perfect response, clarity and warmth throughout the clarinet range. IT’S FABULOUS TO HAVE SUCH A PEACE OF MIND AND CONFIDENCE OF PLAYING ON THEM FOR OVER TWENTY YEARS NOW!"- Milan
