Subj: [kl] Forestone vs. Legere
Date: Mon, 08 Jun 2009 13:51:43 -0400

I've used Legere's for doubling, but don't like them on clarinet. They don't
feel or sound natural to me. The Forestone really emulates a cane reed.
Maybe it's visual, for they have the color of cane, not the transparent look
of the Legere. Legere's feel slippery on the lip, too. Very unnatural to me.
