Dor Assaraf

Grammy Award Nominated Saxophonist

"When the summer comes, the saxophonist's nightmare begins just 3 minutes with the saxophone outside, and you can say goodbye to your reed. When I first heard of Légère and their reeds, I thought to myself that it's probably another experimental product or another nice patent for saxophone. However, after I tried, I was surprised to discover something else. One thing I told myself at the moment, stopped searching for the perfect reed. It's here! As soon as I started playing, I felt his quick reaction, the wonderful sensibility, the simplicity of the overtones production. I have not changed the reed for half a year!! Amazing!! And the most amazing thing is that weather has no effect on the reed. So that in all weather conditions, it remains the same. Happy to finally meet a product that has a real impact on our conditions as saxophonists. Thank you Légère!"- Dor
