"Légère reeds are the best thing that I've ever come across as a touring musician. They allow me not to worry about changes in temperature or climate because they play so consistently day after day (city after city). I have made believers and converts of many musicians who swore they would never play anything but cane. Also Légère has been a wonderful company to represent because the people who work there have been so supportive of me and my career over the years. Thank you for everything! "- Thomas
