 Re: Selmer Muse Bb and A clarinets (new model / 2021)

I haven't tried one yet but from hearing recordings I would guess that the Muse would be my personal favorite from among Selmer's many current production models. It has a nice concentration of sound with excellent balance of tuning and timbre across registers, and it appears to project the tone well. Interesting that Fortunado uses the rather open Vandoren B45 lyre. That was also one of Guy Deplus's favorite mouthpieces. It would be way too open for me though. Did you happen to notice what mouthpiece Sauzeau was using with the Muse?

It its efforts to gain market share (away from Buffet), Selmer has gone down two parallel paths. Since the 10G and other 10 series models, they have either tried to incorporate some of the traits of Buffets or they have taken the different route of making distinctly different models, like the Signature and the Recital. The Privilege and the Presence have some similarly to Buffets, but many players feel they sound too wide and heavy in comparison. The Muse seem to have finally achieved a blend of partly Buffet and still distinctively Selmer qualities without the unwanted heaviness of sound and with unmistakable improvement in intonation.
