Legere reeds in general are great. I have used them since 2002 when I performed a concert entirely using Legere Clarinet reeds. Over the years, I have tried others, including cane but eveytime I return to Legere. The last few years I have used the European cut and now I use both the European and French cut. I love the somewhat darker sound of the French cut, but depending on the type of music I play i.e. Jazz or classical, I will use European for Jazz and Pop music but French cut for classical. I absolutely love Legere Reeds.
