Legere in Berlin Philharmonic

Just noted on the Legere site (In the News section) that Legere German Cut is being used:

"Andreas Ottensamer recently won a Solo Clarinet Clarinet position with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. Mr. Ottensamer prevailed in heavy competition for the position using a Légère German Cut clarinet reed and the PlayEasy system from Austrian mouthpiece master Nick Kückmeier. In the final pairing of the competition, both players were playing Légère!"

I've been a fan of the Signature series since their release. A pro that I sometimes play with has stated repeatedly "You're the only one I know who can sound good on a plastic reed." I've sent him the link. Maybe now he'll consider his attitude toward Legere is based on tradition and prejudice and not on his ears.
