Introducing the French Cut, by Légère. A refined, symphonic reed that gives players a richness and stability in tone, without any sacrifice to response. With a profile that has been completely reimagined, the French Cut has been designed for a dark, centered tone that allows for a deep range of emotional expression. The reed is responsive but even, with the perfect amount of resistance.

Better than I expected

The reed played really well and I was amazed by how similar it was to my cane reed. Great product definitely a 10/10

Great Reeds

Tried these for the first time on the recommendation of a friend after being skeptical for a long time. Love playing on them!

Trying Legere Alto Sax reeds on an Alto Clarinet

At the recommendation of another Alto Clarinet player I decided to try Legere Alto Sax reeds on m my Alto Clarinet. I play a Clarke Fobes 10K Alto Clarinet mouthpiece with a Vandoren Optimum ligature. I tried the Legere Alto Sax French Cut, American Cut and Signature reeds all 3.00. I had a bit of success with the French cut, but felt the 3.00 was too stiff for me. I was not able to produce a quality sound using the American cut or the Signature. I requested an exchange of all 3 reeds and in true Legere excellent customer service fashion, they granted the requested exchanges. I received the exchanges quickly and tried the French cut 2.75 I requested and I had much more success with this strength. It is still a bit stiff for me, but I am improving the more I play it. Legere exchanged the other 2 reeds for Bb clarinet reeds for me. I have been playing Legere reeds on my Bb and Eb soprano clarinets for years. I am a Legere enthusiast and am hoping I can find just the right Legere reed for my Alto Clarinet! I was able to gift the 3 Alto Sax reeds I couldn't use to a sax player in my wind ensemble to try. I hope they have success with them. Thank you Legere customer service for making the exchanges so easy. I'll be ordering an Alto Sax French cut 2.50 soon.

Love the response and sound of the reed. I think I should have chosen a quarter size harder. Might I be able to exchange?
