Legere TENOR SIGNATURE 2.5 - TSSI25

Description

Légère Signature, a wider and shorter reed for stage musicians who wish to impose their sound.

The Signature, the reed of YOUR sound.
A reed shorter, wider, thinner than the Classic, this is what characterizes this Signature model. This particular design produces a clear, colorful sound of a wide spectrum of harmonics. With its quick response and great freedom of articulation, this reed is especially recommended for soloists, classical musicians or jazzmen, who share the same goal: the search for a personal sound signature.

Light, engineering at the service of musicians.
If the Légère reeds are considered as true technological masterpieces, it is because they come from the meeting of two scientists. Guy Légère, a chemist (Ph.D. at McGill University) and clarinettist, and Mark Kortschot, a specialist in composite materials (Ph.D. at Cambridge University), worked together to find and develop the material that would be most suitable for offer optimal longevity and acoustic qualities. Lightweight reeds are the result of this collaboration that has been going on since 1998.

Lightweight reeds are made from polypropylene. This non-toxic material has been approved for direct use in food contact, these reeds are completely safe to use.
Légère has adopted a particular process, the molecules of matter are aligned in order to precisely adapt rigidity and density, to be closer to the traditional reed reed.
Lightweight does not add any fiberglass or any other chemical.

Characteristics of this material:
- It does not need to be pre-conditioned before being played
- It does not absorb water
- It is not toxic
- It can be disinfected
- It is extremely durable in time.

Of course, the most important thing about these reeds is the sound.
Even with a very refined ear, you would not be able to distinguish a traditional reed from a lightweight synthetic reed, even on the stage of a large Philharmonic Orchestra.

Also tested 2.5 reed on Selmer tenor with 3 mouthpieces: Otto Link tonemaster 7*, Selmer S80 1* and Dukoff D7: very easy to play across the entire range from the first try. Impressive. Rich harmonic sound that does justice to each of these very different mouthpieces. I recently had to throw away about ten old reeds (Rico, Lavoz, Vandoren zz force 3-3.5) equivalent to the price of a synthetic reed, but I will keep the light signature from now on: no more problems, consistency and stability. You take it, you play. The sound is natural, not at all "plastic" or too bright. All embouchure effects (vibrato, growl, overtones) are greatly facilitated. Worth trying at least for practice: time saving and concentration guaranteed! I am personally CONVINCED and will try it on my soprano with a Brancher mouthpiece.... (Show more)

Since I tried it, I've adopted it. Always ready to use. Consistent in both lows and highs. And of equivalent quality. No more reed boxes where half are useless
