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.

The reed that makes you forget about reeds.

Try them out guys! Start enjoying the discovery of your instrument without the hassle of trying to find a good enough reed. These Legere's are consistent and all-round best for any challenge you can throw at them.

These reeds are awesome!

I recently purchased a couple of European cut Bb clarinet reeds. They are wonderful! My tone quality is better than what it was with my best cane reed. These reeds project with ease. I love the consistency of these reeds. They save me time trying to find reeds that work. No more rooting through my reeds and taking time to find one that works. I grab one of my new reeds and play! I love that! Staccato tonguing is clean and crisp. These reeds will be great for doing pit playing for musicals. I don’t have to worry about my reed drying out if I’m playing another instrument or waiting for the dialogue to finish before I play again. If I was still doing parades and marching these reeds would be perfect for marching. I was over-blowing the reed at first but settled into it just fine with a little time to adjust to it. I highly recommend these reeds.

Fabulous Euro 2.75’s for jazz

These reeds are perfect with my Vandoren B45 lire mouthpiece and Vandoren signature ligature for a fabulous open sound with fast response for Jazz improv on my Backun Protege.

Super Stable

Oddly enough I use this reed on soprano saxophone and it works so well for what I need. The response is super quick and consistent that I have absolutely 0 worries about reeds. It’s stable and tone quality is what I’m looking for.
