Reeds

The Légère bassoon reed responds instantly from the box. Its unique material never needs to be moistened, allowing the player to focus on their music and not the reed. It projects easily and clearly while producing a clean and focused sound. It is available in Medium and Medium-Hard strengths to complement various styles of playing and set ups.

The reeds are cut in halves using 3-axis, computer-controlled precision cutting machines and are never molded or stamped. The halves are then bonded together again using a digitally controlled system resulting in a reed which is balanced in both blades, and has the right combination of tip thickness, heart, and flexibility.

The combination of tip thickness, heart and unique material makes it easy to glide from the low registers to the high registers of the instrument. While some of the top bassoonists in the world play this reed, it is also used by players of all levels.

Légère European Scrape oboe reeds respond instantly and are ready to play straight from the box. The design allows for a warm, centered sound with ease of projection. They never need to be moistened and are available in three strengths, Medium-Soft, Medium and Medium-Hard.

All reeds are made to an initial aperture between 0.68-0.72 mm, but this will change after the reed is played. The total length of the reed is 69.8-70.2 mm and it plays at 440-442 Hz depending on the positioning in the reed well. They never need to be soaked and are unaffected by any weather or humidity.

While students should start with Medium-Soft or Medium strengths, advanced players may find any of the three strengths suitable for their embouchure.

Their ease of playing is the reason these reeds are heard in some of the most prestigious orchestras and on stages and recording studios around the world.
