Re: Legere Euro Cut "hack"

Author: Chetclar

I have used Legere European Cut reeds exclusively for the past three years in professional situations using a Kaspar Cicero or Chicago mouthpiece and a Frank L. Kaspar German silver ligature with good results. These reeds do not play flat for me and I can play altissimo notes easily. I recently played the Broadway Musical Mary Poppins for a major regional theatre—26 performances, one reed used on B flat and I cut a Bflat Legere with a pair of metal cutters and used one reed for the eflat clarinet also for the entire run. I have not found a Legere bass clarinet reed as of yet, that works that will on my bass clarinet. I use a Kaspar Cicero bass mouthpiece —any ideas about other Legere reeds that might work on this mouthpiece?
