There have been many technological advancements in reed making over the past decade. With that being said, countless student and professional musicians from around the world still prefer the natural feel and bright sound provided by cane reeds. In fact, respected companies like Vandoren, Rico, Legere and Gonzalez work harder than ever to ensure their cane reeds are perfect, from how they are cut to the quality of cane itself. In these pages, you'll find each of the aforementioned brands along with many others offering cane reeds for clarinets, saxophones and even double reed instruments like the oboe and bassoon.
Considering how many best sellers make up these pages, you'll be sure to come across something to your liking. For example, Vandoren offers a seemingly endless range of reeds in various strengths for virtually every woodwind instrument. Packs like the Traditional Bb Clarinet Reeds, Java Tenor Saxophone Reeds and the Traditional Bass Clarinet Reeds come with high ratings and will no doubt improve the sound of any serious musician's performance.
Alexander Reeds is another brand to check out. For example, their Classique Alto Saxophone Reeds are designed to give you a wide palette of expression and they produce a very warm, balanced sound. Or, if you play a double reed instrument, Andreas Eastman has you covered: their Bassoon Reeds and English Horn Reeds are made from premium cane from the Var region of France. French cut and French filed, both sets are available in a variety of strengths.
With a catalog as extensive as this one, you'll definitely benefit from spending some time here. By taking your instrument of choice and budget into consideration, it won't be long before you'll discover a reed or reed set that perfectly matches your hard-earned skills and discerning tastes. And don't think that you have to settle for only one - after all, the best way to find out which cane reed is right for you is to try out numerous styles. Whether you favor a soft reed for lower register playing or a stiffer reed for hitting those difficult high notes, you couldn't have picked a better selection of cane reeds.
