I applaud the durability and consistency of Légère Reeds, in both music performance and product production. For the past five years, I have been using Légère reeds for my woodwind playing. Long gone are the days of having to "warm up" a cane reed, or having to remember to put a mouthpiece cap on so that your reed doesn't dry out too quickly. Whether performing in a musical pit, a chamber music concert, or practicing in a private space, I can simply pick up any of my instruments and trust that the response and evenness of tone of my Légère reeds will measure up to my exacting standards. I encourage you to try Légère reeds!
