WHY THEY WORK

The secret? A synthetic material unique to Légère, meticulous computer controlled processing operations

and a team of ambitious and hardworking individuals who passionately believe in the Freedom to Perform.

Materials
Design Process

Cane is a unique material—lightweight, yet surprisingly stiff along the grain. That unique combination is what makes it vibrate so well. Reproducing those properties in a synthetic material isn’t easy—but it’s exactly what we’ve done.


Our reeds are made from a special formulation of polypropylene—a non-toxic, food-safe polymer you’ll also find in medical equipment, yogurt cups, and packaging. On its own, polypropylene is far too flexible for a reed. So we strengthen it through a process called orientation, which aligns the polymer fibers to dramatically increase stiffness. That’s the secret to the signature feel and response of a Légère reed.


Because our material doesn’t absorb moisture, Légère reeds don’t need soaking, never warp, and are ready to play right out of the case. They’re durable, hygienic, and can be cleaned easily with warm water and a mild detergent. It’s cane—refined.

The Légère Guarantee

Légère Reeds wants you to be completely satisfied with your purchase.

Everyone can enjoy their Légère reeds if they find their right strength. This is why we are proud to provide an Exchange of Strength Program within 30 days of purchase. If you are unsatisfied with your clarinet or saxophone reed, please begin the exchange process regardless of where you purchased it in the world.

Please be assured returned reeds are discarded after a quality check and are never resold.

Amazing reed for playing in a marching band

I bought one of these reeds at a Long and McQuade recently as well as a tenor version of it and I was completely surprised by it's playability and tone in relation to other brands of synthetics I've tried. Because I play so often, I can usually go through a box of 5 cane reeds in a few weeks, but this reed really extended how long I can play with a singular reed with its amazing durability and slight flexibility in the tip. I would highly recommend this to my friends and family or anyone reading this review.

Great sound

I absolutely love these reeds for bari sax, they have such a great tone and last for such a long time

Glad to hear you're enjoying the reed!

I have been using it for almost a week and a half, it is by far the easiest reed I’ve ever played on. It works really well and has a very good tone

Excellent Reed - Very Durable

My son is in his high school band and came home requesting these. He tends to break his reeds frequently, so I was a bit worried because of the high price. We gave them a try and are very happy with them! They are very durable (he hasn’t broken one yet) and he says they are much better to play with than traditional reeds. He prefers the thicker reeds (3.0 or 3.5) because he says it’s easier to get high notes. This is a great product - we’ve bought four and will continue to use these as long as he’s playing bari sax.

Thank you for the kind review!

The best synthetic reeds out there!

I have been using these reeds for my Bari for months now. They play great and are extremely durable. One reed lasts you months. Highly recommend!

Glad you're enjoying the reed!
